Carbon Tunnel Vision. How much time do we spend chasing carbon reduction whilst ignoring everything else?

Carbon tunnel vision - focusing on carbon at the expense of broader sustainability

Driven in part by the truism that “what gets measured, gets managed”, there is a real risk that organisations become so focused on carbon metrics that they neglect the broader sustainability picture – biodiversity, social impact, water, soil health and more.

It is a concept powerfully articulated by Jan Konietzko, and one that serves as a timely reminder that carbon, whilst critically important, is only one dimension of the challenge we face.
