The Net Zero Standards: ISO vs SBTi - with Mai Bui
The SBTi has just published its second draft of the Net-Zero Standard v2 with important developments on carbon removals, and ISO is developing its own Net-Zero Standard. These parallel processes are already causing quite a stir across the climate and business communities. Do we really need another standard? Will ISO’s approach move the needle or add to the confusion? What will be the impact of both standards on carbon removals?To help us get to the bottom of this, we’re delighted to welcome Dr Mai Bui, Director of Climate Science at Supercritical and an Expert Working Group Member on carbon removals for the Science Based Targets initiative. Mai will help us dig into what the new ISO standard could mean for the net-zero landscape.Join co-hosts Eve Tamme and Sebastian Manhart in the discussion with Mai to cut through the headlines and get clarity on what’s changing for net-zero strategies, target setting and reporting.Eve Tamme: LinkedIn and Website - post on this topicSebastian Manhart: LinkedIn and Website - post on this topicMai Bui: LinkedInSBTi draft Net-Zero Standard V2 second public consultationISO Net Zero Standard and GuidelinesRobert Höglund’s take on the latest SBTi draftLukas May’s take on the latest SBTi draft Hosted on Acast.
