Grid for Good (National Grid): Episode Three - What next?21 Oct 202100:03:17

Governments across the world are trying to make their countries take steps to stop the harmful impact of climate change.  COP26 is a huge event that is bringing people together to agree the best ways to tackle the issues and reach net zero – that’s where there’s a ‘zero’ balance between the amount of greenhouse gases being put into the atmosphere and those taken out. 

Changes won’t happen overnight.  It will take time to find the answers and develop technology that can create a cleaner and greener world.  In the UK, this means creating jobs right now, and in the future, to help the country reach this goal.
