Unlocking value and carbon reductions through technology and partnerships

September 17, 2020
Organiser:
The Sustainability Report

The industrial sector holds one of the keys to a low carbon future. As a sector, it is responsible for a significant proportion of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions – and therein lies the opportunity. By harnessing sustainable technology in manufacturing and tapping into nature-based solutions, forward-thinking organisations can drastically reduce their environmental impacts and unlock a portion of the $23tn opportunity that comes from addressing climate change.

Join Svetlana Oglobina (Dow Olympic & Sports Solutions), P.J. Marshall (Restore the Earth Foundation), Simon Phillips (NatureBank) and Faye Miller (Dow Industrial Solutions) to learn about how these organisations are working together to find solutions and increase their positive impact.

In this webinar you will learn:

  • What technologies the industrial sector is leveraging to reduce its carbon footprint
  • Why organisations are investing in nature – and what the business case is
  • How sports marketing partnerships can accelerate sustainable innovation across a number of sectors
