In 2019 the UK became the first major economy to legislated to reach Net Zero emissions by 2050. This ambitious target has created an opportunity to generate better jobs, increase resilience, improve the health and wellbeing and help protect our planet.
In order to reach Net Zero we need to be acting now and creating different ways of working, new technologies, innovative solutions and more importantly people with the right skills to deliver on it.
