Being carbon neutral is a first important step to achieving a net-zero result. While the own operations might still produce CO2 emissions, entities can offset to become carbon neutral. While offsetting will contribute to projects aiming for climate action on a global level, insetting would have an impact on the own sector and/or partners.
Insetting strategies and measures are still at an early stage of research and implementation. Postal operators might identify several interesting use cases which could have a significantly higher impact on the operators’ sustainability strategy than offsetting measures.
In this online event, participants will share insights into their own projects and initiatives, possible use cases, eventual common strategies or measures, and will discuss how insetting can benefit the sector as a whole.
