Alternative net-zero futures: planning and making a path forward together

Utopian or dystopian – what future do you want?

This virtual workshop is creating a new kind of discussion: highly engaging, collaborative, and requiring a willingness to bring an open mind. It’s designed to appeal to the entire membership – the more perspectives and experiences the better.
This is an exclusive event designed to make connections, think differently, look ahead creatively and move forward with a new vision and sense of the potential we have as a membership to achieve our net-zero goals. By looking ahead several years into alternative net-zero futures, provoked by “artefacts from the future” like future food products and a discarded till receipt from 2035, we will put ourselves into the shoes of individuals from 2035 and work together in carefully planned groups to track backwards and think “what do we need to do now to either embrace this, or avoid that”.
At the end of our session together, the goal is that we all see and feel our world differently, and return to our roles with a renewed sense of perspective, and a willingness to create new partnerships and collaborations.
This members-only event is to be held on 4th February 1.30 – 5.00 pm.
Register here. Hear from Method Europe’s Managing Director John Oswald and Agri-TechE Membership Manager Becky Dodds to find out what you can expect from this event and how it might help your business plan to achieve net zero.
