The objective is clear - as called for in the Paris Agreement, we need to halve carbon emissions by 2030 and reach net zero by 2050. Collectively, as leaders in sustainability, the world is counting on us to put the brakes on climate change.
In order to reach those targets, it’s critical we address the biggest CO2 producers with effective actions to accelerate decarbonisation now. In this session, Schneider Electric and Landsec will share our vision on how we can achieve decarbonisation with our path to net zero buildings.
