Climate scenarios are already widely used by corporations and financial institutions to assess climate risks and set pathways to net zero. However, despite the prevalence of these scenarios, less consideration has been given to their use in identifying new opportunities across markets and sectors. This session will help users more effectively draw insights from these scenarios that may help them to thrive in a rapidly changing world. This session will also explore the major scenarios in use today from the International Energy Agency, Network for Greening the Financial System, and Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and highlight their key assumptions.
October 26 and 27 in Lyon, France will mark the second edition of CarbonZero Global Conference and Exhibition, bringing together the most brilliant minds and top experts to find and outline the most effective and high-importance solutions for decarbonizing the cement and construction industry. The conference focuses on Alternative Fuels and Raw Materials used in cement and concrete production for reaching as close as zero CO2 emissions.
