Sustainability 101: Carbon Accounting Sustainability App: 5-day: Implementation

The UK government has committed to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and is encouraging local government and public sector organisations to support delivery against two thirds of the targets. As your services impact on both the environmental and social challenges faced by the UK, you have a crucial role in helping to achieve these targets by 2030. To support these goals, you must change behaviours within your organisation, and technology and data solutions are vital in helping you deliver this.

Data insights What gets measured gets managed, but to do so effectively, you need the right information. This is particularly true as public sector organisations transition to net zero and strive to deliver long-term carbon negative targets. To address the climate crisis, we all must play our part in reducing carbon emissions by consuming less energy and using energy more efficiently. This may sound simple, but making these changes can be challenging, especially without the right data to back them up. Investing in data insights will support you to secure internal and external buy-in with a greater understanding of people and places, and their impact on the environment.
