**Two thirds of councils not confident of hitting net zero targets....** Two thirds of councils are not confident of achieving their net zero targets within their set timescales, according to new research conducted by the Local Government Association (LGA). Given the severe issues and pressures faced by many councils, the pursuit of Net Zero targets has become more critical than ever. This urgency requires council leaders and climate change officers to convene in person, address key challenges, network, and discover viable solutions. Attending LGC Net Zero 2024 in June will allow you to meet face-to-face with your peers from councils across the UK and find out how they are overcoming the challenges in achieving Net Zero targets. https://lnkd.in/eyM2Rvsp Speakers confirmed so far include: - Anna Scott, Director of Services, Keep Britain Tidy - Donna Chisholm, Executive Director- Economy, Environment and Culture, Brighton & Hove City Council - Jessica Cook, Net Zero Programme Manager, Net Zero North East England - Yogita Popat, Assistant Director for Sustainability, Barnet Council - Christopher Hammond, Chief Executive, UK100 - Adam Clarke, Deputy City Mayor - Climate, Economy and Culture, Leicester City Council Jon S., Senior Manager in the Master-Development and Design Team, Homes England - Matthew Gladstone, Chief Executive, Peterborough City Council To view the latest programme and expert speaker line-up please see here https://lnkd.in/e_EVBSrH For further information on attending the event please call Madieson on 020 3953 2647 or email him at madieson.charles-christie@emap.com.
