What is the session about?

One year on from COP26 and we’re already at COP27. What has changed? What progress have we made? And what is the outlook for tackling climate change?

During this Business Bytes, you will hear from experts from across our sector on their views for how action is being driven on carbon and climate - What differences they are seeing and how the objectives and targets on mitigation AND adaptation are being realised.

Our panellists will have 15 minutes each to present their viewpoints, facilitated by James Cadman, followed by a moderated Panel Q&A. Here participants can ask what they have seen changing, whether that’s technology, ways of working, innovative solutions, policy and legislation or behaviours to tackle climate change. And importantly, their look into the future.
