DESCRIPTION:Nearly a fifth of the UK’s carbon emissions are generated by 
 businesses. With global emissions expected to be just 5.5% lower than in
  2019\, urgent action is required across all sectors to achieve net zero
  goals. But how can we push businesses to sustainability when their bott
 om line is at stake?\n\nWhat policy changes are needed to support the bu
 siness community’s transition to net zero? Are UK policymakers key to dr
 iving this? And is it possible to incentivise transformation with a win/
 win scenario\, where adaption can equate to productivity and profitabili
 ty?\n\nJoin Policy@Manchester on 3 February to hear Professor Jonatan Pi
 nkse discuss what could be achieved through a mix of legislation\, incen
 tives\, and business modelling support. His presentation will be followe
 d by a Q&A. \n\nRegister your interest by emailing policy@manchester.ac.
 uk and a Zoom link will be sent in advance of the event.
