Episode notes

Ever wondered what its really like on the ground at the UN Climate Summit?

Powerscourt’s Leighton Barnish, Head of Sustainability and Christie Wanstall, Sustainability Analyst give us the lowdown on the COP28 conference in Dubai, where over 80,000 people gathered from 190 nations in a truly extraordinary display on the international climate stage. 

We also hear from business leaders helping facilitate the move to a better, greener future. What more must be done to drive the innovation needed to achieve our collective climate targets and what challenges face businesses trying to lead the charge? 

Topsoe CEO Roeland Baan, Carbonaires advisory board member Anna-Marie Slot, and Foresight Solar Fund Managing Director Ross Driver join us to discuss the critical importance of ensuring climate commitments translate to tangible action.
