Live from edie 26: How can businesses unlock previously overlooked sustainability opportunities?

How are businesses responding to growing water-related risks? And are data centre developers taking the opportunity to drive down embodied carbon as artificial intelligence (AI) proliferates? Find out in the new edie Extra podcast. The latest edie Extra podcast is now streaming, featuring a new and exclusive live panel discussion which delves into the sustainability opportunities that many businesses may have missed when focusing on operational emissions – including water efficiency, water stewardship, and cutting embodied carbon. This discussion was recorded live at the edie 26 conference in central London in March 2026, where more than 950 ESG professionals and business leaders convened for two days of inspiration and co-creation. Grundfos’s sustainability director for industry, Therese Noorlander, and Airedale by Modine’s sustainability lead, Sophie Long, are in conversation in this episode, which is chaired by edie’s content editor Sarah George.
