@garethkane.bsky.socialSuccess at last! I've wanted to cover aviation since the pod started but no-one would front up. This week airline pilot turned climate campaigner Katie Thompson, CEO of the cheekily titled Bumprints, joins me to tell it how it is and what can be done about it
@garethkane.bsky.socialWatching #PMQs on catch up - LOTO Badenoch pressurising PM Burnham on Jackdaw gas and Rosebank oil fields in North Sea. PM says he will be pragmatic. Badenoch attacks him on importing gas and approving the Sea Lion field in the South Atlantic.

@peterwalker99.bsky.socialReposted by @garethkane.bsky.socialNEW: Kemi Badenoch’s flagship party conference policy document, The Right Way, overestimated the cost of net zero by nearly £500bn, seemingly after someone accidentally double-counted figures on a spreadsheet.
@garethkane.bsky.socialCapgemini's latest survey of the state of corporate Sustainability blows away the idea of a retreat. Vincent Charpiot explains to me on the pod that there have been big shifts: Climate impacts a= emphasis on resilience, things are getting difficult and AI...

@garethkane.bsky.socialA question from a member of the #Sustainability Leadership Roundtable has stuck in my brain for days - have we been sugarcoating #NetZero? And are we about to pay the price?

@garethkane.bsky.socialI'm getting a bit obsessed with X-curves and the low carbon transition...

@garethkane.bsky.socialHow do we introduce clean technology and displace old dirty technology? Who better to discuss this on the pod than Prof Wayne Visser, pracademic and author of the forthcoming book, Technologies of Hope. Our conversation gave me hope!

@garethkane.bsky.socialAndy Burnham's conference speech yesterday was refreshingly honest about a whole load of issues, but one he swerved was North Sea Oil & Gas. Here's my take...

@garethkane.bsky.socialMissed John Healey's conference speech as I was travelling, but, scanning the text, there is barely any mention of energy, clean or dirty - hmmm... labourlist.org/2026/09/john...

@garethkane.bsky.socialUK PM Andy Burnham has an orange/green energy dilemma in the form of Messers Trump and Polanski. I dig into this and more in this week’s episode of the Net Zero Business Podcast.
@garethkane.bsky.socialNext month's webinar is a corker! It's all about how a simple change in *your* mindset can unlock #Sustainability performance in your organisation. And you can apply the ideas that resonate with you to your organisation using the supplied workbook (£).

@garethkane.bsky.socialYesterday I heard about 'virtual MPANs' a new tech solution to allow EV owners to charge up without needing off street parking or running cables across the pavement. The anti-EV bores can strike that one off their list of grumbles.

@garethkane.bsky.socialShort extract from my podcast discussion with Sara Bell of RIISE: How to sell sustainable products using beauty – and horror!

@garethkane.bsky.socialA committee of MPs has suggested we ditch the phrase Net Zero. I argue it is Net Zero's very success that has attracted opprobrium from assorted populists, fossil fuel interests and conspiracy theorists, yet it retains public support. Forwards, not back!

@garethkane.bsky.socialOn the pod, Sara Bell of RIISE who disrupted UK energy markets via the courts, founded a low carbon fashion marketplace and wrote a book on purpose-led success.
Where do the vampires fit in to all this? Well you'll have to watch/listen to find out!
