The race to net zero is accelerating. 

With 2040 – the food and drink industry’s net-zero target – now less than 15 years away, the time to act is now.

RSK invites you to “Decarbonise Countdown – Breaking Limits, Building Futures”, a focused, solutions-driven conference designed to help you tackle the hard-to-reach final 15–20% of greenhouse gas emission reductions that many decarbonisation plans have yet to map out.

This event is about practical action: exploring proven and emerging technologies that can deliver real impact today.

RSK is the number one UK environmental consultancy according to Environment Analyst in November 2025.
