Sustainable Business from the Ground Up

 Online - Monday 20th September 12.00-13.00 - now available from  https://youtu.be/vMsX2A8P0GU

Sustainability, protection of the planet and meeting the challenges of the climate crisis are the concern of every business. While major multinationals may have the biggest impact, every business has a vital role to play. In this session three leading entrepreneurs from York explain how their organisations have addressed the issues, describe their progress on the journey towards sustainability and answer questions from the audience.

Anthony Day,  presenter of the Sustainable Futures Report podcast, is joined by 

Hannah James - Sustainability Manager at VetPartners, 

Laura Sanderson - Design Director at Dogeatcog, 

Emma Godivala - Director at York Gin.

 

Decarbonising York 

Online - Tuesday 21st September 15.00-16.00 BST - now available on demand 

How do we decarbonise a city the size of York? Domestic heating is a major source of carbon emissions but how can we cut emissions and stay warm? And how much is all this going to cost?

Anthony Day, presenter of the Sustainable Futures Report podcast, introduces three specialists to discuss solutions.

Peter Garforth, international energy consultant, explains how York could follow similar communities in Europe and North America which have implemented district energy and district heating. 

Andy Walker of Sure Insulation, author of the Haynes Manual of Home Insulation, advocates saving money and cutting carbon by stopping heat from escaping.

Kenneth Campbell, director of the Energy Efficiency Awards, reviews the challenge to the industry and the feasibility of carrying out the necessary work in the necessary timescale.
