The Net Zero Business Podcast

"You're Gonna Need a Greener Boat" with Ollie Taylor, Marine Futures

A whopping 90% of global trade is transported by sea - about 1.5tonnes per person on earth every year. This represents 3% of global emissions yet lies outside the Paris Agreement. This week on the pod, I'm joined by Ollie Taylor, Founder of Marine Futures, to talk all things maritime Sustainability, covering the decarbonisation of the global shipping trade, elite yacht racing and Ollie's specific interests in large leisure craft.

Making Net Zero affordable with Andrew Sissons, NESTA

On a daily basis we hear opinions on why the UK's electricity prices are so high – is it due to our reliance on gas or our Net Zero policies? This week, Andrew Sissons, Director of Sustainable Future at NESTA, joins me to discuss NESTA's decarbonisation of domestic heating projects, and how to make that transition more affordable which takes us on to power prices. We unpick why UK electricity costs so much, whether renewables are starting to bring costs down and what more policy makers can do.

NET! Zero at Wimbledon with Hattie Park, AELTC

This week on the pod I'm joined by Hattie Park, Sustainability Manager at the All England Lawn Tennis Club, or, as most people think of it, Wimbledon. We talk about the challenges of half a million people descending on the grounds, expecting to be fed and watered, reducing the impacts of buildings and how Hattie and her team engage with the players to get the message out to a wider audience.

The Strait jacket loosens, more energy records fall and who asked Tony Blair?

The Sustainability Show is our four weekly review show. There's been plenty of news in the last four weeks with the possibility of the Strait of Hormuz reopening to fossil fuels, a number of energy records met and the UK Government starting the process of adopting the seventh carbon budget. Ex UK PM Tony Blair also popped up with his views on Net Zero amongst plenty of other issues. I also review the three interviews we've had on the pod, pulling out the key learning point from each before discussion my thoughts on the National Emergency Briefing documentary and, in particular, whether we should use the phrase 'climate emergency'.
