Digital Decarbonisation: Clouds, Code, and Climate Goals

As businesses race to meet net zero targets, many are turning to digital technologies to reduce emissions. But are innovations like AI, sensors, and blockchain truly delivering on their promise? In this episode of Think: Business Futures, we explore digital carbonisation and how Industry 4.0 technologies are reshaping climate strategy with Dr Yun Shen from the UTS Centre for Climate Risk and Resilience, and Dr Matthew Grosse, Senior Lecturer in Accounting and Program Director of the Master of Business Analytics at UTS Business School. In a practical, forward-looking conversation, we discuss whether digital innovation can meaningfully accelerate emissions reduction, what businesses often misunderstand about tech-driven decarbonisation, and the real-world barriers to adoption. Discover how AI and automation are transforming emissions tracking, and the critical mindset shift leaders must make to harness their full potential. Hosted and produced by Ali Aitken
