When large companies have teams of people creating the ‘perfect’ image, they can appear eco-friendly without putting in the work. In fact, only 5% of the largest 100 public companies in the UK have credible net-zero 2050 plans. A survey by Prospects shows that three-quarters of graduates said they would be more likely to apply to a company with strong sustainable practices. With a bit of critical analysis and knowing where to look, you can quickly spot Greenwashing.
The urgent need for climate action is clear. From the Paris Agreement to Net Zero goals, sustainability is now a global priority. Breakthroughs like electric vehicles, renewable energy systems, and vertical farming highlight how engineering is driving innovation for a greener future. This blog explores how engineering is evolving to address sustainability and the skills needed for this change.
