Green Horizons 2024: Navigating the New Climate Economy
The involvement of business in addressing climate change has dramatically increased over the years as more leaders choose to enthusiastically jump in rather than stand on the sidelines ignoring it. That latter position is becoming increasingly unfeasible for both the ‘big end of town’ and those in their value chain.
This year, expect climate change to climb higher in your list of management priorities as the landscape changes to include increasing numbers of company net zero commitments as well as mandatory climate reporting kicking off here in Australia.
Join us as we turn these changes into technical and legal opportunities for your business. Net zero business advisor Nick Palousis and ESG lawyer Emma Peters will share with you the practical ways that businesses can support their value chains with new mandatory reporting requirements as well as how this aligns with increasing consumer demand for sustainable goods and services.
Join Nick and Emma, and sustainability leaders from Thomas Foods and Eldercare as they share the ‘light bulb moments’, when it becomes no longer possible to ignore the business drivers to use their resources more effectively. It doesn’t require a ‘hand on heart’ deeply green philosophical moment, just a solid business mindset.
