Net zero by 2030 – what would it take?

Net zero by 2030 – what would it take?

This event is exclusive to Friends of Tortoise

Tortoise members set out to answer perhaps the toughest question of our time. Join us to hear what they found.

Our daily digital ThinkIns are exclusively for Tortoise members and their guests.

We’d love you to join us.

The task is huge; most people say impossible. It would require a revolution in social and economic priorities and the biggest shift in investment patterns in at least 200 years. A gigantic heap of junked internal combustion engines would be the least of it. But isn’t that exactly what the planet needs?

As we all hunkered down under those strange empty skies in March, we invited Tortoise members to help us work out what it would take to get to net zero carbon emissions in a decade. Their findings were published in Tortoise in August. At this very special ThinkIn, the Tortoise members who did the work on our first ‘moonshot’ project join editor Giles Whittell to share what they discovered.

Chair: Giles Whittell, Editor and Partner, Tortoise

How does a digital ThinkIn work?

A digital ThinkIn is like a video conference, hosted by a Tortoise editor, that takes place at the advertised time of the event. Digital ThinkIns are new to Tortoise. Now that our newsroom has closed due to the coronavirus outbreak, we feel it’s more important than ever that we ‘get together’ to talk about the world and what’s going on.

The link to join the conversation will be emailed to you after you have registered for your ticket to attend. When you click the link, you enter the digital ThinkIn and can join a live conversation from wherever you are in the world.

Members can enter their unique members’ access code to book tickets. Find yours in My Tortoise > My Membership in the Tortoise app.

If you have any questions or get stuck, please read our FAQs, or get in touch with us at memberhelp@tortoisemedia.com

What is a Tortoise ThinkIn?

A ThinkIn is not another panel discussion. It is a forum for civilised disagreement. It is a place where everyone has a seat at the (virtual) table. It’s where we get to hear what you think, drawn from your experience, energy and expertise. It is the heart of what we do at Tortoise.
