We're joined this month on the podcast by Steve Curl, Chair of the Strategic Oversight Board for Zero Carbon Cumbria, an initiative which brings together efforts to reduce carbon emissions across Cumbria. We discuss:

  • What is Zero Carbon Cumbria and what are its aims?
  • How are we going to reach net zero by 2037?
  • What does this mean for businesses in Cumbria? How can they get involved?
  • So why should businesses and industry decarbonise, what’s in it for them?
  • How big a challenge is this?
  • Do we really think we can achieve net zero in Cumbria by 2037?
