COMING UP AT SCEWC25

ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

Here you’ll find all the content relating to the Energy & Environment sectors that will be covered at #SCEWC25.

ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

Climate change poses a significant threat to cities around the world, as more frequent and intense heatwaves, storms, floods, and droughts can damage infrastructure, disrupt essential services, and displace residents. Yet, at the same time, cities are major contributors to climate change, responsible for 70-75% of global greenhouse gas emissions.

How to solve this conundrum? How can cities leverage cutting-edge technology to enhance urban sustainability and assume leadership roles in the global effort to combat the climate emergency?
