Episode 12: Net Zero Fundamentals, Part 1 – Carbon accounting and net zero pathways

Driving Net Profit with Zero Emissions

This podcast episode is sponsored by AusIndustry, a Commonwealth Government program, which helps eligible businesses strengthen, grow and innovate, and develop and commercialise new ideas and products – locally, nationally and globally. The program also helps businesses achieve net zero via support from consultancies such as 100% Renewables.

This recording is based on a webinar that Barbara Albert, our Co-CEO, ran under this program to explain the fundamentals of net zero to Australian small and medium-sized businesses. In the first part of this special podcast recording, the discussion centres around an introduction to carbon accounting, carbon scopes, how you can calculate your carbon footprint and how you can develop decarbonisation and net zero pathways.
