Net Zero in Zurich – what does it mean for us?
How does the City of Zurich plan to achieve its climate target of net zero emissions by 2040? And what changes will be needed in our daily lives, infrastructure and political decision-making to get there?
This talk provides an overview of Zurich’s current greenhouse gas emissions and highlights the greatest opportunities for reducing them. It focuses on key areas such as mobility, consumption, buildings, waste management and food. Through practical examples, you will learn how measures such as the bicycle tunnel, circular construction, repair services and a plant-based diet can help to reduce emissions.
The talk also explores how individual choices and city-wide policies interact. What changes are necessary? What is realistically achievable? And which measures can have the greatest impact?
Join us to reflect on which changes are necessary, feasible and effective in order to achieve our urban climate protection targets together.
No prior knowledge is required.
Meeting point:
Main entrance of focusTerra, Sonneggstrasse 5 (inside the building).
