Did you know.... Did you know that across the pond in the USA, July 25th is National wine and cheese day? More importantly, in the same part of the world, it is also Earth Overshoot Day, the aim of which is to raise awareness of the planetary resource shortages that we are creating, through our modern lifestyle. Taking last year in isolation, we would need 1.7 plant earths to meet our energy and raw material needs. Clearly as a collective, that needs to change... But as an individual or as an SME, what can you do to alter your behaviours and that of your peers, stakeholders and your wider communities? Here at Peak Governance Business Advisors, we invite you to join us on July 25th as we embark upon a day of Carbon Literacy Training where we will endeavour to empower you to - Develop a deeper understanding of carbon emissions and their impact on climate change - Identify and assess sustainability risks and opportunities within your business - Implement effective strategies to reduce your carbon footprint and enhance resource efficiency - Engage and inspire your employees to embrace sustainable practices - Stay ahead of evolving regulations and compliance requirements - Enhance your brand reputation as a socially responsible and environmentally conscious organisation. Maybe leave the wine and cheese until after the course finishes, but do bring a tea/coffee and an open mind... Numbers are limited so for further information on how to book your place please visit us at https://lnkd.in/eqxhkUzv #CarbonLiteracy #CLTraining #CarbonLiteracyProject #ClimateEmergency #Onesafeplanet

Did you know that small and medium sized businesses are responsible for 50% of the UK’s non-domestic emissions? This means businesses have a crucial role to play in the fight against climate change. We all do!   That’s why we created Greener Futures - a programme designed for local businesses to go green and save money through a mix of e-learning, in-person training, 1-to-1 mentorship and resources.   It’s completely free and participants can take part in as much or as little as they want.   Ready to get started?

Many congratulations to Foodbuy UK & Ireland on their accreditation as a Silver Carbon Literate Organisation by The Carbon Literacy Project Phil Korbel It is an impressive accomplishment in such a short space of time. Credit to the vision of the management team Andy Porter COO leading this delivery with the support of his fab sustainability team guiding the organisation as a whole to deliver on the wider Compass Group UK & Ireland #NetZero #2030 #TransitionPlan #Scope3emissions Karl Atkins Harinder Singh Maya Gadhvi Rachel Eyre İsa Türkmen Carolyn Ball 🌍🍴💚 et al. With the recent acquisition of CH&CO organisational changes may mean that Silver status maybe temporarily lost as the procurement and logistics side of the business grows but it is great to see a sector leader delivering on a very ambitious corporate strategy, playing their part in a complex food system, looking to build resilience and future proofing the business in an uncertain world where there are not only considerations of #Scope3 emissions reductions but also the broader holistic picture to consider both environmental, social and ethical. I look forward to seeing how Foodbuy peeps continue their net zero and sustainability journey, playing their part in a complex, multi-faceted, multi-stakeholder food system considering climate change mitigation and sustainable supply sourcing from farm to fork considering equity, social justice, nature, health and wellbeing - feeding the nation with delicious and health giving food sustainably sourced with a lighter footprint on the earth! 🌍 NHS Supply Chain Nick Vadis Compass Group Chartwells UK Jonathan Davies Levy Restaurant Associates UK It is a challenging journey which will only get more challenging and change has to happen at pace and at scale but this behavioural change piece, is, I believe a vital part of the transition that must take place - so well done all 👏👏👏 Mike Barry Heidi Spurrell, MSc, PGDip, BEM Sarah Calcutt City Harvest London FareShare UK Chloe Andrews-Jones The Worshipful Company of Fuellers The Woolmen Emmanuel Cohen Livery Climate Action Group Mark Maslin Steve Jones Tracy Parker Lee Parker Samantha Guiher-Greig Equinoxe Solutions 💚🌍💙🚛💚🌍💙🚛 💚🌍💙
