Event on Sep 19 NYCW: Breaking Barriers, Bridging Divides
Event details
The cooperation between governments, the private sector, and civil society will determine the future of our planet, as we face a critical window to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, conserve biodiversity and pave the way towards climate-resilient societies.
Held during Climate Week NYC 2023, this event brings together thought leaders to discuss how governments, companies and societies can move away from a narrow focus on reducing direct emissions towards a more holistic worldview where scope 3 emissions, social justice, and biodiversity must be considered in order to avoid eroding skills, jobs, social cohesion, climate, and environment.
The event (by invitation only) is hosted by the Confederation of Danish Industry, Danish Cleantech Hub and State of Green. Attendees can expect a highly interactive afternoon.
