Partner: ClimateView

Cities contribute 70 percent of global greenhouse-gas emissions. As a consequence, cities play a key role in driving the green transition. What distinguishes cities that are leading the green transition? How do city forerunners implement actions with the scale, scope and speed needed to reach the goals set by the Paris Agreement? And how have they enabled stakeholder and citizen inclusion as part of the process? During this session, we welcome representatives from cities leading the green transition along with green city networks to discuss these questions and what can be learned from successful examples.
