Industrial Decarbonization Deep Dive Panel Discussions:
-
Technologies & systems: How hard is it to decarbonize the industrial sector, really?
In this panel, we'll discuss the most powerful technological and systemic levers to address greenhouse gasses from industrial activities. What are the states of these levers – how powerful are they actually? – and is the industrial sector particularly challenging to decarbonize, or have we just not spent enough time on it yet?
-
Policy Decisions: What policies do we need to support industrial decarbonization?
Policies are just as important as technologies, systems, and infrastructures when it comes to decarbonizing the industrial sector. In this panel, we'll discuss policies and institutional design to encourage action in deploying decarbonizing solutions.
-
Building public support: How can we be sure a low carbon transition creates opportunities for workers and communities?
Decarbonization will be impossible without public support. In this panel, we'll discuss the challenges and opportunities around building a broad base of support to decarbonize industry. What is the future that people want to see, and how does that overlap or connect with a low-carbon transition?
