We’ve turned intuition into a buzzword—flattened it into a slogan, a gut feeling, or a vague whisper we don’t always know how to hear. But what if intuition is so much more? What if it's one of the most powerful tools we have—and we’ve just forgotten how to use it? In this episode, I’m joined by Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir , Icelandic thought leader, filmmaker, and author of InnSæi: Icelandic Wisdom for Turbulent Times . Hrund has spent over 20 years studying and teaching the science and art of intuition through her TED Talk, Netflix documentary (InnSæi: The Power of Intuition), and global work on leadership, innovation, and inner knowing. Together, we explore what intuition really is (hint: not woo-woo), how to cultivate it in a culture obsessed with logic and overthinking, and why your ability to listen to yourself might be the most essential skill you can develop. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ Why we’ve misunderstood intuition—and how to reclaim it ✅ Practical ways to strengthen your intuitive muscle ✅ What Icelandic wisdom teaches us about inner knowing ✅ How to use intuition during uncertainty and decision-making ✅ Why trusting yourself is an act of rebellion (and power) Intuition isn’t magic—it’s a deep, internal guidance system that already exists inside you. The question is: are you listening?

“We have been monitoring the commitments of local governments in Australia since 2017. We've recently updated the ambitious commitments and found that, in total, 165 Councils out of 537 local governments in Australia have made commitments to net zero emissions. This number covers 31% of all councils. NSW takes the lead in terms of the absolute number of councils committing to ambitious targets. Followed closely by Victorian local governments. Looking solely at the number of councils committing to ambitious targets doesn't give the full picture. The more important metric is the fraction of the country's population that is covered by these commitments by councils, who are looking to lead the communities by example. 70% of Australia's population is now covered by ambitious commitments.”

In this special episode of “Driving Profit with Net Zero emissions” podcast, we're revisiting a recent webinar that we hosted— "From ambition to action: Local government commitments and strategies for net zero"

This year, local governments across Australia have made remarkable progress towards achieving net-zero targets. In this episode, we unpack findings from our latest research on Net Zero Commitments by States, Local Governments, and Communities and share practical strategies to help councils take the lead in climate action.

In this episode, we cover:

State and local government climate commitments: Gain insights into the ambitious targets shaping Australia’s net-zero future.
Setting and communicating meaningful targets: Learn how councils can effectively engage their communities and align on climate goals.
Building credible transition plans: Discover best practices for developing actionable and impactful net-zero strategies.
Smplifying climate data management: See how tools like our C-Compass streamline reporting, enhance decision-making, and ensure transparency.
The next frontier for councils: Dive into transformative opportunities and strategies that empower councils to push boundaries in climate leadership and drive impactful, future-ready actions.

Send us a text " Let's turn our attention to what we want and need our data to be. We all know data is essential for climate action, but let's be honest, it's so tough to get together data that's accurate, reliable, complete, and assurance-ready. It's particularly tricky if you're creating a carbon footprint for the first time."

Send us a text “It is about understanding the low-hanging fruit and working on that. You don't have to change everything overnight. Yes, to do something like going carbon neutral, you have to be able to commit to buying offsets and not every business has that ability. So, the aim is to reduce your emissions first so that you have to buy less offsets. Seems obvious but really critical to do. And the other thing is to look around within the tourism industry at the help that's out there. The federal government has just put out a sustainability toolkit, Eco-Tourism Australia has a sustainability scorecard before you move into the accreditation rankings of Eco-tourism accredited. And so have a look out. There are heaps of tools that can help you identify that low-hanging fruit if you're not sure what it is to start your journey.” In this episode of “Driving Profit with Net Zero emissions” podcast, we welcome Anthea Hammon, Managing Director at Scenic World Blue Mountains, Australia’s most visited privately owned tourism attraction, nestled in the heart of the Blue Mountains near Sydney.

You know, now I look at the world slightly differently when I travel myself, I look at what other people are doing and whether they're not doing it, it's a little bit disappointing. So it's really nice to be at this point where we have offset our footprint, but then to look at what else could we do to take it further forward and how quickly can we do this to actually make a meaningful impact.” In this episode of “Driving Profit with Net Zero emissions” podcast, we're joined by Deb Zimmer, CEO of BridgeClimb Sydney as we delve deep into the world of one of Sydney’s most iconic attractions.

Send us a text “It doesn’t make sense to go carbon neutral and purchase carbon offsets that might be dodgy. The purpose of achieving carbon neutrality is that you want to prove to the marketplace that you care about the environment and that you are taking a stand against climate change. You don’t want to open yourself up to reputational damage. “ In this special episode of “Driving Profit with Net Zero emissions” podcast, we're revisiting a recent webinar that we hosted in collaboration with TEM (Tasman Environmental Markets) — " How to confidently buy high-integrity carbon offsets." The webinar breaks down the intricacies of carbon offsetting and provide a clear pathway for strategic carbon credit purchasing. In this episode, Barbara Albert and Nicolas Francois were joined by our guest speakers from TEM, Brett Giddings (Head of Digital Solutions), and Rebecca Heard (Manager of Corporate Partnerships and Digital Solutions). In this episode, we cover: Understanding carbon offsetting: The basics and importance in today's sustainability landscape. Criteria for high-quality offsets: Identifying and selecting the most credible offsets. Climate Active certification: How offsets play a key role in achieving voluntary carbon neutral certification. Navigating greenwashing and greenhushing: Ensuring your organisation's practices are transparent and trustworthy.

Follow the path that looks right for you and your organisation, and just work your way through it, step by step. Be ready to have ethically defensible strategies when operating in areas that are open to critique, but it's more important to be a doer than a critic.

Send us a text “One of the most impactful things we can do if you're passionate about climate change is to support politics. It's striking at the root of what needs to be done to make sure that the people who are working on the policies are going to drive this transformation. If we don't have the right people working at the root in favour of this, then we can all be wasting so much of our time.” In this podcast episode, we speak with Simon Holmes à Court, an entrepreneur, investor, and philanthropist who founded Climate 200, which is an initiative aimed at empowering communities to nurture their own political candidates and effect change on climate issues.

Send us a text “We don't have to worry about the next quarterly cycle, like public companies do. We can take judgments that transcend that cycle, understanding that seasons and natural systems produce variable results. We've made a judgment to leave a whole bunch of fish uncaught, with a negative impact on profitability, and we've made that call based on what we've felt is in the long term interest of the fishery. It's a privilege that we can play the long game and deliver long term shareholder value.” In this podcast episode, we speak with David Carter, CEO of Austral Fisheries, one of Australia’s largest integrated commercial fishing companies. Austral shows unparalleled global leadership in sustainable fishing, is a carbon neutral organisation, and sells carbon neutral products. Not only do we talk about Austral’s sustainable business practices, their carbon footprint and emissions reduction activities, but we also dive deeper into what motivated David to act on climate change, personally and in his role as CEO of the company. In this episode, find out: How Simon Sinek and a trip to the Antarctic inspired David to take action on climate change How people like Mike Cannon Brooks gave David permission for a bigger narrative and talking about climate change in his personal and business life How Austral Fisheries see themselves as a steward of the ocean and how they play the long game Why David feels that Austral Fisheries can’t be a climate action leader until they have followers Why Austral Fisheries had its new hybrid electric ship built in Norway Whether green methanol could be the future for net zero shipping Other relevant links David Carter’s talk at TEDxPerth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8imszj5gES4 Marine Stewardship Council: https://www.msc.org/ Austral Fisheries’ Climate Active Public Disclosure Statement: Organisation & Product certification CY2021 Austral Fisheries sustainability: https://www.australfisheries.com.au/sustainability Carbon Neutral Pty Ltd’s Yarra Yarra Biodiversity Corridor project - https://carbonneutral.com.au/about-us/our-projects/ Book: Infinite Game by Simon Sinek: https://simonsinek.com/books/the-infinite-game/ Book: Start with Why by Simon Sinek: https://simonsinek.com/books/start-with-why/ Confront the Brutal Facts by Jim Collins: https://www.jimcollins.com/concepts/confront-the-brutal-facts.html Connect with us David Carter - https://au.linkedin.com/in/david-carter-174625a Austral Fisheries - https://au.linkedin.com/company/austral-fisheries-pty-ltd Barbara Albert - https://www.linkedin.com/in/barbaraalbert100/ Driving Net Profit with Zero Emissions - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS49PGSgCeDNda7s1L0cQtQ?view_as=subscriber 100% Renewables -…

Send us a text “One of the things that we've also done is put in an internal carbon price. We'll be using that in modelling all our CapEx decisions and strategy to understand the impacts of various decisions on our targets and the financial return. The CFOs of our businesses saw immediately how that process could help us achieve our goals and what their responsibility was in terms of making that happen, and the contribution that they could make towards delivering this critical outcome for Sims. The carbon price was a new way of helping our people connect to our purpose of delivering a world without waste. We make a lot of asset decisions, such as buying material handlers. They're long-lived pieces of capital equipment. If we buy a diesel one today, we're going to be offsetting that in 2030.” In this podcast episode, we speak with Blaise Porter , Group Director Sustainability & Corporate Responsibility of Sims Limited, a global leader in metal recycling and circular solutions for technology, as well as an emerging leader in renewable energy. Sims focus on building a sustainable, diverse, and innovative supply chain throughout the country and across the globe.

Send us a text “Rewiring a community means electrifying the majority of the households, the vehicles, the water heaters, the space heaters, the kitchens, and powering it with a mix of rooftop solar, community renewables, and grid-based renewables, all backed up by batteries everywhere. This is a pathway to zero emissions, better public health, household savings, and perhaps most importantly, community economic renewal” , explains Dr Saul Griffith. In this podcast episode, we speak with Dr Saul Griffith , co-founder and chief scientist at Rewiring Australia and Rewiring America, nonprofits dedicated to decarbonising those countries (and the world) by electrifying everything. We talk about what it will take to transform our infrastructure, update our grid and adapt our households to an all-electric future. Saul’s new book, ‘ The Big Switch’ lays out a detailed blueprint for fighting climate change while creating millions of new jobs and a healthier environment. Using the example of Austinmer, a suburb with 1000 households, Saul shows how that community could save close to five million dollars a year if everything was electrified with technology that is available today. He also provides three steps that we can each take to access those savings in our own community, eliminate emissions and create jobs locally. About Saul Griffith Saul is the co-founder and chief scientist at Rewiring Australia and Rewiring America, nonprofits dedicated to decarbonising those countries (and the world) by electrifying everything. Saul received his PhD at MIT. Prior to MIT, he studied in Sydney and at UC Berkeley. Since graduating in 2004, Saul started numerous technology companies based in the Bay Area. These include Makani Power, which was acquired by Google, Instructables, which was acquired by Autodesk and Squid Labs. Saul had been a principal investigator and project lead on research projects for agencies, such as NASA. And above all, Saul is a fabulous storyteller. Saul's new book, ‘ The Big Switch ’ lays out a detailed blueprint for fighting climate change while creating millions of new jobs and a healthier environment. It sets out a roadmap for how we can dramatically cut emissions with technologies that are available right now, while saving Australian households over $300 billion dollars by 2035, without sacrificing the lifestyle we are used to.

Send us a text In this episode, we speak with Lion, one of Australia’s largest brewers to hear more about their climate change targets and their journey towards net-zero emissions. We talk about Lion’s carbon footprint in Australia and globally, including their scopes 1, 2 and 3 for their operations and supply chain emissions and what measures they take to reduce emissions. We talk about external factors such as sector trends, science-based targets, reporting under the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures, Sustainable Development Goals, and Lion's sustainability metrics for internal reporting. We dive deeper into the top climate risks, such as water security, which is important for Lion’s operations, and even more important upstream for crop growing. We talk about the need for regenerative agriculture and increasing soil carbon. The discussion then moves on to Lion’s carbon-neutral certifications to Climate Active as well as international organisational and product-focused offset programs. Justin also talks about how Lion works with their suppliers to reduce carbon emissions and how partnerships will be the next steps in Lion’s sustainability journey. About Lion As one of Australia’s largest brewers, Lion employs more than 1,500 people. Lion produces iconic brands such as Tooheys and XXXX, James Squires Zero, Steinlager Zero, as well as craft beers such as Furphy and Little Creatures , cider, alcoholic seltzer, coffee and kombucha. Lion’s environmental approach is governed by the simple mantra of ‘reduce, reuse and recycle’. As a large manufacturer and purchaser of agricultural goods, Lion’s priorities are focused on reducing their water and energy usage and waste. Lion has made great progress in emissions reduction and in 2020, became the country’s first certified large-scale carbon neutral brewer. As part of Lion’s Energy Optimisation Program, they aim to brew all their beers using 100% renewable electricity by 2025. In New Zealand, Lion has achieved “carbonzero” certification with Toitu. And in the US, New Belgium has committed to eliminating carbon emissions by 2030. About Justin Merrell Justin is the Group Environment Director at Lion. He is responsible for setting Lion’s environment strategy that focuses on carbon, sustainable packaging, and water stewardship. Prior to Lion, Justin held various roles in Qantas, but joined Qantas in 2012 as Group Environment Manager just in time to catch Australia’s first biofuel flight.

Episode 4: How to get to net-zero for the built environment NOW, with Bruce Precious 1:00:18

Send us a text “I think it’s justified that the built environment moves much more quickly. Rather than casting out long-term scenarios, for many sectors of the economy, the question should be, why not net-zero today? If not, why not?”, argues Bruce Precious in today’s episode, which discusses the question of how the built environment can achieve net-zero emissions. The built environment is a significant contributor to the global carbon footprint. It accounts for approximately 40% of our emissions. And in Australia, 50% of electricity consumed is in buildings, such as homes, offices, warehouses, shopping centres, or hospitals. On top of that, there are emissions generated through raw materials that go to construct these buildings. In this episode, Bruce and Barbara discuss how the built environment causes emissions, how to reduce them, NABERS and Green Star ratings for buildings, the use of carbon offsets to reach carbon neutrality and how the built environment can adapt to the physical impacts of climate change. About Bruce Precious Bruce is widely respected for his achievements in the built environment sector to transform how the property industry responds to the most significant sustainability challenges. Bruce has seen and championed the evolution of green building ratings right from their inception in the mid-1990s to where they are today. In 2019, Bruce was awarded the NSW Green Globes Lifetime Achievement Award and, in 2020, was named a Green Star Champion by the Green Building Council of Australia. With a career spanning over 30 years, he is now Principal Consultant at Six Capitals Consulting. Before this role, he was GPT’s National Manager - Sustainability and Property Services.

About 100% Renewables In 2015, we developed one of the first organisational plans to achieve 100% renewable energy. It was the first time we had an opportunity to look holistically at a whole business to see how 100% renewables could be achieved. When we developed that plan, we saw that organisations could operate with renewable energy and reach net zero emissions while driving financial performance. Based on this revelation, we named our business ‘100% Renewables’ – a name which encapsulates our vision that in future, all organisations will be powered with renewables and have zero emissions. Since then, we have helped over 100 organisations develop their net zero plan and have grown the business to a national team of net zero specialists.

Episode 1: CORENA – How one dollar spent can fund emissions reduction projects multiple times 22:20

לפני 4 years22:20

22:20

Send us a text Revolving Energy Funds are a great mechanism to finance climate action strategies. They are a self-sustaining funding mechanism, which you start with seed capital that you invest in sustainability projects, such as energy efficiency, water conservation, or solar projects, for example. The fund’s unique feature is that you return savings from sustainability projects back into the REF to finance the next round of investments. In this way, you can spend funds multiple times to drive emissions reduction, resource and cost savings. For the first episode of the “ Driving Net Profit with Zero Emissions ” show, Barbara is interviewing Briony O’Shea, the Chair of Corena. Corena is a grass-root, donor-funded, not-for-profit organisation run by volunteers. The premise of the Corena model is a revolving fund to which supporters donate, and the provision of zero-interest loans to not-for-profit and community organisations to implement climate action projects. About Briony O’Shea Briony is a chemical engineer with a Master of Laws in International Law. She specialises in renewable energy and future fuels such as hydrogen and biogas to support the transition to a low-carbon future. She joined Corena in 2017 as a volunteer and took over the role of Chair in 2020. About Corena Corena is a grass-root, donor-funded, not-for-profit organisation run by volunteers. The premise of the Corena model is a revolving fund to which supporters donate, and the provision of zero-interest loans to not-for-profit and community organisations to implement climate action projects. Examples of funded projects are installing solar panels, improving energy efficiency, switching away from fossil gas use, or purchasing electric vehicles. To date, Corena has implemented over 40 projects Australia-wide, with most projects being solar PV installations and energy efficiency. Altogether, 663 kW of solar PV have been installed, generating over 1,800 MWh of renewable electricity. Corena has received donations of over $460,000, and because of the revolving nature of the fund, these donations have resulted in over $800,000 in loans given. They’re on track to exceed $1 million of loans given this year.
