The public consultation on ISO 14060 – the draft International Standard on net zero aligned organisations – has been launched and is now open until 17 August. This standard builds on the ISO Net zero guidelines (IWA 42:2022) and minimum criteria that Oxford Net Zero helped to research and convene. It has since gone through a two-year international consultation with hundreds of delegates from across sectors and over 100 countries represented.

Alexis McGivern, Head of Stakeholder Engagement and a Research Fellow at Oxford Net Zero, has offered to host a briefing session for LSA law firms to assist firms across our network to engage and respond to the consultation. Although the timescale is tight, we are keen that as many UK-based firms as possible contribute to the consultation – it is a vital opportunity for legal professionals to contribute to the future of net zero governance and accountability.

Join us online for a full walk-through of what the consultation involves and how to navigate the process.

Join us for this LSA Reporting Standards Masterclass with Alexis McGivern, Head of Stakeholder Engagement and Research Fellow at Oxford Net Zero. Drawing on her work translating academic research into practical guidance for organisations, Alexis will provide a clear overview of the leading climate reporting standards and update us on the current consultations.

The session also offers a high level update on serviced emissions, and will be a chance for LSA members to learn more about the work of the Oxford Serviced Emissions Hub and the work being developed by Legal Charter 1.5 who are developing the case, and a high level methodology, for reporting serviced emissions in the legal sector.
