Investment pathways for industries that are hard to decarbonize
Reaching net-zero will require reducing emissions commensurate with the specific contribution of each industry to greenhouse-gas pollution.1Pathways to reducing emissions in line with the goal of reaching net-zero vary by sector. See, e.g., “Target Setting Protocol, Third Edition.” UN-convened Net Zero Asset Owner Alliance, January 2023. The Institute has teamed with Galvanize Climate Solutions to show how capital can influence the future emissions trajectory of hard-to-decarbonize industries such as cement, steel and chemicals.
