Carbon Management Webinars

4^th Webinar – Delivering climate neutrality: what policy framework will take us there?

The 4th webinar looked at enabling measures that will help the EU achieve this goal, including the EU’s Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), the Sustainable Finance agenda, the follow up policy tools to the Hydrogen and Energy System and TEN-E Regulations, as well as financing instruments like the Innovation Fund and Next Generation EU Fund.

The discussion also addressed the Paris Agreement’s goal to achieve a balance between emissions and removals in the second half of this century and the contribution of international cooperation mechanisms towards this objective, as well as whether the EU’s recently explored carbon border-adjustment mechanism will improve or hinder our chances of reaching the goals of the Paris Agreement.

Speakers:

• Jacob Werksman, Principal Adviser at DG CLIMA, European Commission;
• Pernille Weiss, Member of the European Parliament;
• David Hone, Chief Climate Change Adviser at Shell.
