Organisational leaders are in an increasingly untenable position as net zero targets loom closer, and legislation tightens the net. For example, in the UK, more than 100 local authorities have pledged to run on 100% clean energy by 2050. Of these, 58 have committed explicitly to neutralising council emissions by 2030 as well as those of their residents and businesses by 2045 – five years ahead of the government’s 2050 target.

Let’s step back and focus on the idea that no matter how complicated the compliance and security regime, it should be able to be distilled down to a checklist.
