Side events at COP25 Climate Conference

We kindly invite you for a two side events which would take place at COP25 UNFCCC Climate Conference in Madrid:

• “Challenges and Opportunities of achieving “net zero emissions“. How to manage the just and efficient transition? “

CAKE/KOBiZE, Grantham Research Institute and CAN Europe organize an event at COP25 European pavilion on the design of just transition for low carbon economy. Meeting the targets assumed in Paris agreement requires a complete decarbonization of energy and phase-out of carbon-intensive industries. The transition will involve a structural change in European economy which still rely on the use of fossil fuels. We will discuss what are the challenges and opportunities associated with those changes and what are the consequences of transition for European citizens. In addition we will consider which measures could cushion the unwanted effects of climate policy.

The event will be held on December 3, 2019 (Tuesday), at 14:30 – 16:00 at EU Pavilion.
