Climate change, biodiversity loss and humanities over use of resources have reached a critical point. The IPCC recommending that we have just 12 years to limit catastrophic climate change that will make life on earth very challenging. Prince Charles described the next 18 months as critical in setting the agenda to achieve this. Whilst Governments gather to discuss this, businesses can also start to take action now to:   
  • Understand their own impacts
  • Plan for change to reduce and mitigate these 
  • Inspire their workforce, suppliers and customers
