Energy and Carbon
A new UN Environment Programme (UNEP) report is warning that the international community is still falling far short of the Paris goals, with no credible pathway to 1.5°C in place.
A new report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) is warning that atmospheric levels of the three main greenhouse gases - carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide - all reached new record highs in 2021.
If we took a short trip forward in time to 2040, and then looked back at how some organisations in the water industry successfully achieved Carbon Net Zero, it’s likely you’ll see a large four-letter word: NIGG.
Southern Water’s Bluewave team are working with local councils and specialist suppliers on an innovative project to use the heat generated in the sewer network as a low carbon heating source in the community.
Northumbrian Water’s ongoing investment in renewables continues to take the company closer to its ambitious goal of achieving Net Zero in 2027 - carbon emissions have fallen more than 90% since 2008, when they stood at 303,000 tonnes.
- Experts warn risk of passing multiple climate tipping points above 1.5°C global warming is escalating

- Ofwat wants to see "concerted action" to tackle operational and embedded carbon emissions in parallel at PR24
- UN calls for world to accelerate shift to renewable energy and triple investments to at least $4 trillion a year until 2030
