Tell us what you think about Nottingham?s journey to carbon neutrality
Saturday 26 March from?11am to 12:30pm
 Nottingham is aiming to be carbon neutral by 2028, and we will need support of businesses across the city to achieve this ambitious target.
The Carbon Neutral policy team are interested to know the ways in which local businesses are becoming more sustainable and reducing their carbon footprints, so would like to invite you to join their focus groups. These online sessions will run for around 90 minutes and are facilitated by staff at Nottingham Trent University.
Whether your organisation is already on the journey to reducing carbon emissions, has plans in the pipeline, or is interested but isn?t sure where to start, sign up to share your ideas.
