Our short video looks at the skills requirements for delivering this target and breaks down the results from our recent Skills for net zero and a green recovery survey.

Roger Bryant: What does ’Net Zero’ mean? Is it the same as ‘CO2 Neutral’?
Yes, they are much the same thing. It's not a difficult concept, though some people like to pretend it is. If you want to do something that emits CO2, then you also need to do something else that absorbs CO2.
