I’m really proud that EY is ending the year carbon neutral, globally, and across all emission scopes. Looking forward to our collaboration with @southpoleglobal. Such an important step on our journey towards a low carbon future. #ValueLedSustainability #BetterWorkingWorld

Rebalancing how we use our city spaces away from cars to humans: Strava makes Metro and data on > 4 bn activities free to orgs who want to promote human powered transport. I think I have 50 in there somewhere. https://t.co/cz1RfiAj7j

The future of the green economy relies on opportunity for all.

"For 16, 18, 19, 20 year-olds that maybe aren't going to go to university, we have to help them get into the job ladder," says @SteveVarleyEY, Global Vice-Chair, Sustainability, @EYnews. #BloombergGreen

Saving the planet shouldn't equal catastrophic job losses. The TUC in the UK say that if done well, companies can develop Transition Agreements and secure jobs through a net zero transition. Learn lessons from dark days of early 1980s industrial Britain

Where is trust in 'The Algorithm' now? The Algorithm is not an entity, or a robot, or a member of the Borg. It is a system invented by humans that could have been tested and assured in a number of ways.

@linajczyk Hi, my experience was senior execs seeing loads of uncertainty, high risk of mass disruption yet no clear path to the answer. Agile innovation approach as relatively low cost way through it. Also helps to create innovation culture. Good luck! 👍

#CarbonPricing increases the cost of emitting #GHGs, giving low-emissions products and services a competitive advantage, and creating an incentive to #decarbonize. https://t.co/MdyJDdYRtq #EYEnergy

Will we ever go back to mass office working?
"Now that we are all working from home, amid the children, the toast crumbs and the laundry, we are realising that the pretence of an orderly life at the office is also a liberation."

@DrDoyinA on research on ethnicity in biz: some improvement in biz talking about ethnicity but too many general statements and lack of firm commitments

[Ben Taylor @BenTaylor_EY]

Sir John Parker on the need for more progress on ethnicity representation in business boards: “we have snowy peaks syndrome” and “too many companies aren’t realising the world is changing fast”
