Safeguarding the Planet

Innovative partnerships and dialogue that enable investments and the deployment of climate and clean technologies will be critical to progress on global climate and nature goals, as well as to address the ‘energy trilemma’ of ensuring an affordable, secure and sustainable energy supply. According to the International Energy Agency, the technology on the market today can allow us to achieve 66% of the global emissions reductions needed if we are to reach net zero by 2050 – significantly up from two years prior but leaving much work to be done. A scaling up of ambition, governance, partnerships and capital is necessary to accelerate decarbonization efforts to reach net zero, invest in nature-positive transition pathways and ensure the circularity and resilience of resource systems overall. How can we catalyse climate and nature action through innovative partnerships, increased financing and the deployment of frontier technologies?
