How To Set Carbon Reduction Targets & Bring Your Employees On The Journey

By Seismic

Our carbon journeys are critical to making business a force for good. As we face the realities of the climate emergency, businesses need help defining realistic and challenging sustainability goals and targets. Setting carbon reduction targets for your business can feel like the end-goal, but defining your carbon targets is only half of the story. The biggest challenge comes in driving the change needed to achieve them, and knowing where the start.

In our recent Breakfast Briefing, we looked at how to set and achieve your carbon reduction targets holistically; from balancing ambition and achievability when defining your targets, to harnessing the power of your employees for achieving your goals. Our Principal Consultant, Joe Venables and Head of Sustainability Communications, Olivia Hill, were joined by guest speakers Tania Young, ESG Project Manager and Vanessa De Waele, Group Sustainability & Legal Director at team.blue to uncover why engaging employees is an essential element of your carbon reduction journey.

5 key takeaways from the session:

  • How to confidently set achievable but ambitious carbon reduction targets
  • The power of your employees when it comes to embedding purpose and action in your carbon journey
  • Knowledge is power; why carbon literacy training enables your business to better develop your workforce
  • The importance of collaborating with your top suppliers
  • Examples from businesses leading the shift with their employees
