How industry can move faster than regulation when it comes to climate action. 🌍 That is at the heart of a Financial Times article by WE Soda CSO, Alan Knight. The piece explores why, in global and energy‑intensive industries, climate regulation often takes too long and how industry‑led standards can help close that gap. Alan is a board member of ResponsibleGlass and drawing on his experience in steel and forests, the article explains how credible, multi‑stakeholder initiatives can test solutions in real‑world conditions, bring alignment across borders and give policymakers something practical to build on. For sectors like glass, which underpin modern life but face significant decarbonisation challenges, shared standards are proving to be more than a stopgap — they are helping shape the future of regulation itself. 📖 If you’re interested in how industry experience can accelerate climate policy, this is a well‑worth read: https://lnkd.in/efijtRRj
