Who do we trust? Evidence and accountability in the net zero transition

This panel discussion explores the growing importance of trust and accountability in sustainability action at a time of rapid political change and mounting pressure to deliver on net zero commitments. The discussion will explore why trusted and verifiable evidence is essential to driving the net zero transition, and what happens when confidence in sustainability claims begins to erode. Drawing on perspectives from sustainability consultancy, data and measurement, local government and systems transformation, the discussion will explore how evidence is generated, assessed and used to inform decisions across complex environmental and economic systems.
