NET ZERO NETWORK is a new initiative for companies with net zero ambitions to share their needs, ideas and solutions – working together to help all Swedish companies in China become carbon neutral.
Background: The transformation to a net zero carbon economy is achievable and has already begun. Through the 2015 Paris Agreement, world governments committed to limiting global temperature well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C. In 2020, China announced their targets to peak carbon emissions by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by
2060.
Purpose: The initiative for Net Zero Network aims to gather Swedish companies and climate change believers with net zero ambitions to share their needs, experience, ideas, and solutions on this topic.
