Description

Net Zero and Net Zero Buildings are very simple terms that have become part of our common narrative and define our climate goals. But do we mean all the same? There are sometimes small or big differences in interpretation (carbon vs energy, operational vs whole life, offset vs removals, etc).

With this fishbowl-style session, we would like to provide clarity on alignments and discuss some of the differences. The objective is to provide clarity on what is best needed for the climate and strengthen the collaboration toward net zero.
