The Paris climate summit (COP21) is fast approaching and important elements of a possible agreement are emerging. What is already certain is that any agreement will be as much political and economic as it is environmental. So what are the considerations that most impact decarbonisation policies? Does a consistent picture emerge?
Ottmar Edenhofer will give a presentation on the latest findings from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Simone Mori will provide the perspective of industry and Jos Delbeke an institutional perspective in a panel debate chaired by Georg Zachmann.
