GHG emissions from fossil fuels combustion have been changing the atmospheric and oceanic chemistry. Reversing this trend by adopting zero-carbon technologies is the main challenge of our time and has to happen fast to meet the commitments of the Paris agreement.Jacopo Tattini - International Energy Agency (IEA)
A new development model more respectful of the ecological limits of the Earth is needed. Policy measures and carbon pricing should be introduced to steer individuals, community groups and the private sector towards a low-carbon future.Jacopo Tattini - International Energy Agency (IEA)
Biking to work has positive effects both on our health, on air quality in cities and on climate change mitigation. Shifting from car to bike for 10 km every working day would avoid about 640 kg of CO2 and 47 g of PM2.5 every year.Jacopo Tattini - International Energy Agency (IEA)
