Building Talks... Net Zero - Episode 2: An interview with founders of LETI and jargon busting with Cundall's Simon Wyatt

We're back with our second episode of the Building Talks... Net Zero podcast series looking at how the built environment can help us hit the UK’s net zero carbon targets.

At the start of the COP26 climate conference in Glasgow, we talk to two of the founding members of the London Energy Transformation Initiative (LETI), a volunteer group of professionals who have produced a phenomenal amount of net zero guidance in a short space of time. Clara Bagenal George at Elementa and Julie Godefroy at CIBSE give a very personal perspective on what motivates them and how they try to drive change.

And Cundall’s Simon Wyatt, our regular net zero jargon buster, returns to talk about the financial jargon used when considering business risk and climate mitigation strategies.
