Description
The rapidly accelerating momentum on climate ambition in the lead-up to COP26 has been very encouraging, with more and more countries committing to net-zero emissions. Greater focus is now needed on implementation and ramping up the action needed now to make net-zero emissions feasible. To make that implementation count, how can we ensure that net-zero transition strategies are resilient for the long-term? What needs to be done to “future-proof” climate policies against potential disruptions, including impacts from climate change itself, and against changing economic circumstances, such as strained public finances and increased debt? This event, carried out under the OECD’s flagship project on climate and economic resilience, will explore these different dimensions and what governments can do to make sure climate strategies are themselves resilient .
