Serviced Emissions UK Report Launch: Aligning Professional Services with Net-Zero

Event date: October 29, 2024

Time: 08.30–10.30am with networking until 11.30am. 

Location: The Conduit Club, 6 Langley Street WC2H 9JA.

Event type: in-person breakfast event. 

Join Race to Zero, Oxford Net Zero and partners at this special event for professional service providers to engage on serviced emissions as part of net-zero action.

​This event is the UK launch of the new report released during Climate Week NYC last month, Catalysing climate action: The role of professional service providers in realising a net-zero future. The report was the culmination of a six-month engagement and insightful consultation process led by the Professional Service Providers Working Group, which was co-chaired by ONZ Fellow Alexis McGivern and ONZ Senior Associate Ranjita Rajan. Alexis and Ranjita also led on the report.

​This event will present the idea of ‘serviced emissions’ – the greenhouse gas emissions arising from or impacted by client activities that are informed and/or enabled by the advice and/or services of a professional service provider (e.g. consultants, advisors, lawyers, advertising firms and PR firms). The event will also share how representatives from across the professional service and climate ecosystem are already answering the call to drive ambitious action towards net zero.

​Numbers are limited and seats will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Register to join here. Please note that registration is subject to approval by the host.
