Stay with me to the end, because I’ll share how a single parrot species that can barely fly is suddenly having a baby boom while TV news quietly talks less and less about the climate crisis.
In this weekly climate news breakdown, I walk through the biggest signals sustainability professionals, consultants and business leaders should be paying attention to right now. From political attacks on ESG alliances to tightening reporting standards and growing scrutiny of net zero claims, the landscape around climate strategy and carbon accounting is shifting quickly.
If you work in sustainability, advise companies on climate strategy, or help organisations with decarbonisation, these trends matter. They shape how net zero strategies are built, how carbon markets are used, and how climate claims stand up to regulators and investors.
In this video I cover:
• Why climate journalism is rapidly moving from TV into podcasts and video
• The growing legal risk around net zero claims and greenwash
• Political pressure on ESG alliances like SBTi and CDP
• Why companies should build climate strategies that work even if policy changes
• What public opinion in the UK really thinks about net zero
• The truth behind the so called greenlash against climate policy
• The structural problems facing carbon offsets and voluntary carbon markets
• Why carbon pricing and ETS revenues could actually help industry decarbonise
• How new reporting rules and SBTi tools are tightening corporate climate targets
• Why renewables keep growing because of economics, not politics
I also share three surprising environmental facts hidden inside everyday news stories, including the remarkable recovery of the kākāpō, a rare flightless parrot whose population has grown dramatically thanks to conservation efforts.
My goal with these weekly updates is simple. Cut through the noise and help sustainability professionals understand what actually matters for net zero strategy, carbon accounting and real world decarbonisation.
