    Come to stand 306 to hear Nigel Aylwin-Foster’s presentation "How to get to net-zero affordably & efficiently’ which aims to address the concerns of schools and colleges that are feeling overwhelmed by the prospect of beginning their transition to estate decarbonisation.

    The presentation seeks to break down the jargon associated with net-zero, provide practical guidance on how schools should get started, what the government line is, and confront the inevitable fears associated with the subject matter.

    To help schools and colleges understand the process, the presentation uses pie charts and animated graphics to explain the key steps involved and includes a number of recent case studies.
