In the third episode of Navigating to Net Zero, host Rebecca Darst talks with Caroline Morris, KCOM’s Head of Wellbeing, Health, Safety, and Sustainability, and Louisa Harris-Baxter, Vocus’s Head of ESG, about how the companies are balancing increased demand for their services with their decarbonisation goals.  

In this episode, you’ll hear about: 

• Why data centres have earned a reputation as the “bad boy of emissions” for technology and telecom companies and what can be done about it 
• The strategies KCOM is using to cut emissions in the short term, such as its One Network Project, and what level of reduction the company hopes to achieve  
• The use of innovative network infrastructure at Vocus to provide services to Australia’s remote areas and what renewable technology the company is testing to reduce emissions in those areas   
• Vocus’s net zero strategy and the incorporation of managing emissions not just on land, but from under the sea as well
