Could Cork ever be a Net Zero Carbon City?

“People were really engaged and eager to give their time, commitment, energy and creativity in finding ways to collaborate across the public and private sector for the good of Cork”

As part of its commitment to sustainability, Accenture is supporting Cork city in its bid to become a Net Zero Carbon City.

While many may be aware of various government and business efforts, both nationally and globally, to become ‘net zero’ industries or sectors, perhaps a lesser well-known initiative seeks to transform cities. The Net Zero Carbon City (NZCC) initiative, a World Economic Forum project run in collaboration with Accenture, aims to accelerate progress towards Net Zero in key cities around the world. In Ireland, Cork city was chosen as the first in a pilot project.
