Current areas of focus include advancing zero carbon fuels such as hydrogen and ammonia, pushing for public policies to rein in methane pollution from the oil and gas sector in the UK and from global oil and gas, and commercializing carbon management technologies and CO2 infrastructure for industrial decarbonization and carbon removal.

This will include consolidating many individual tracking approaches across a range of metrics held by numerous organizations.
- Address the issue of multiple taxonomies (leading to varying conclusions and strategies) while also identifying key indicator gaps.
