In this blog I dive deeper into the digital recommendations from our latest report - Carbon Accounting and Standards in Industry: A Framework for Innovation and Growth. You can read the full report here (digital covered mostly in chapter 6). es.catapult.org.uk/report/ca…

How do we know whether policies are achieving their #decarbonisation aims? The current framework is a complex web of standards, methodologies, and reporting requirements. @danialsturge & @EnvironmentELLE attempt to untangle the mess: buff.ly/3oyaXxD #CarbonAccounting

📢Four key steps Government needs to take to mature the carbon accounting ecosystem and make emissions reporting simpler for industry. New @EnergySysCat blog from myself and @danialsturge on our proposal for a carbon accounting framework 🧵below es.catapult.org.uk/insight/u…

This blog is just a snippet of our developed thoughts on Carbon Accounting in Industry. For more context check out our report, published this Tuesday, where we talk about standardisation where it makes sense to enable flexibility where it is needed👇 es.catapult.org.uk/report/ca…

And keep watching this space - we'll continue to develop our proposals (including for other economy sectors). We are especially keen to hear from innovators and SMEs engaging in the carbon accounting space. DM me if that's you!

Pleased to share the report is finally out! This was a biggie, great engagement from industry and great opportunity to do some interviewing and workshopping to test out ideas. See Danial's thread below for more detail. I've also posted on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/posts/elle-butt…

UK Government appears to be having an ADHD moment this morning... trying to do all the things all at once and not making much progress on any of them. #greenday #poweringupbritain So here's a short thread about #ADHD and #NetZero 1/

ADHDers have two time buckets "now" and "not now". Until a task feels urgent, it stays in the "not now" bucket. 2050 feels like a long way away and we aren't taking enough about the nearer term deadlines, putting the action needed for Net Zero in the "not now" bucket. 3/

According to IPCC - the level of greenhouse gas emissions this decade will determine whether temperature rise can be limited to 1.5C. There are plenty of reasons to move Net Zero into the "now" bucket We just aren't talking about them enough. 4/Fin

Nascent climate adaptation monitoring will limit options for policymakers to create the policy incentives needed to drive adaptation behaviours. Parallels here to our #CarbonAccounting work. Emissions monitoring is still in its infancy which limits options for policymakers.
The UK Government has not delivered what is needed to address the climate risks we all face. The current approach to adaptation is not leading to the changes required to protect people, businesses, and the economy. bit.ly/3nvMNTV

More work is needed to get to the economy-wide carbon accounting framework needed to help drive emissions reduction and inform policy. We talk about this more in our forthcoming report so watch this space.

Tl:dr for the IPCC report: It's getting worse. It's going to get a lot worse yet. We're still making it worse. We need to throw absolutely everything at proven climate solutions. We need to build climate resilience into everything. We're still going to need carbon removals.

🧠 Did you know it's Neurodiversity Celebration Week this week? 🧠 We often think of #Neurodiversity in terms of conditions like #ADHD, #Dyslexia and #Autism. Focus is often on how to manage the challenges that come with these conditions. 1/🧵

My #ADHD brain 🧠 helps me identify patterns in behaviour, connections in systems and inefficiencies in the status quo. It enables me to play Devil's advocate to thoroughly test an idea. It has also lead me down a nonlinear career path with a diverse set of experiences. 4/

I'm increasingly proud of my Neurodivergence and that's largely through awareness campaigns like this one so please do spread the word! #nuerodiversitycelebrationweek #adhdawareness 5/Fin
