Posted on: 31/10/2022

Innovate UK KTN's Net Zero Talk podcast series helps Local Authorities to explore, share and hear about the best practices to achieve Net Zero for all Places.

Our Net Zero Places Innovation Network aims to make Net Zero in the UK a reality. We do this by supporting local/regional authorities and agencies to connect, collaborate, inform, share experiences and lessons learned, adopt innovation and to level up across the UK.

The Net Zero Talks Podcast series aims to hear from experts and Local Authorities on challenges and practical insights into different topics relating to how to achieve net zero in places.

In this fourth episode, Nilam Banks and Kezia Williamson from Innovate UK KTN explore how collaborations with academia can support decision-makers on climate adaptation alongside their special guests Alex Rainbow, Carbon Neutral Cornwall Assessment Specialist at the Cornwall Council, and Jess Dicken, Research Fellow in European Centre for Environment and Human Health at the University of Exeter.
