Net Zero pledges by countries, cities and organizations are now omnipresent. How can these commitments be operationalised in a credible, fair and effective manner? At this event hosted by Kellogg College, we will take a closer look at the meaning and operationalization of Net Zero, before diving more deeply into the politics of Net Zero in countries of the Global South, as well as asking how Net Zero can be achieved within Oxford Colleges.
Wednesday 14 February 2024, 17:30-18:30, Kellogg College. Register here.
