This is part 2 of a special podcast recording based on a webinar that Barbara Albert, our Co-CEO, ran under the Entrepreneur’s Program to explain the fundamentals of Net Zero to Australian small and medium-sized businesses.
In the first part of the recording, Barbara introduced carbon accounting, carbon scopes, calculating your carbon footprint and developing decarbonisation and net zero pathways. In part 2 of this special recording, Barbara introduces important concepts, such as carbon offsetting, carbon farming, and insetting, which are ingredients for a Net Zero or carbon neutral strategy.

The program also helps companies achieve Net Zero via support from consultancies such as 100% Renewables.
