Webinar: The Road to True Net-Zero: Climate Reality’s 2030 Vision

For anyone who missed the webinar “The Road to True Net-Zero: Climate Reality’s 2030 Vision”, you can watch the recording here

From the meeting description:

During the webinar, former US Vice President Al Gore provided his unique insights and perspectives on the climate crisis, while I shared Climate Reality’s renewed organizational vision and plan – aimed at encouraging the progress necessary by 2030 to reach true net-zero by 2050.

Because the science is clear: At net-zero emissions, global warming can stop in as little as three-to-five years and the Earth can begin to heal. That’s a future worth fighting for. With everything we’ve got. 

On the call, we shared more details about our plans to double the number of trained Climate Reality Leaders, as well as our campaign efforts to halve global emissions this decade, halt the expansion of fossil fuel infrastructure destroying our planet, and build a just and healthy tomorrow with clean energy.

This entails:

  1. Reducing Emissions 
  2. Calling out Greenwashing 
  3. Financing a Just Transition 
  4. Strengthening International Cooperation on Climate
