Today I urged the Leadership Group for Industry Transition initiative #LeadIT to build on its first 1.5 years of fostering collaboration between policymakers, industry & financiers, as well as supporting innovative approaches to drive the decarbonization of high emitting sectors.
Addressed the LeadIT event on Partnerships for Just and Equitable Industry Transition at the Swedish Pavilion today on the sidelines of #COP28 in Dubai, UAE.
India and Sweden share a commitment to innovation, sustainability, and inclusive growth.
LeadIT 2.0 will focus on supporting low carbon transitions on the ground through a structured framework and three pillars: a global forum for dialogue; technology transfer and co-development; and an Industry Transitions Platform.
India-Sweden Industry Transition Platform (ITP) will catalyze collaboration, foster knowledge exchange, facilitate technology transfer, and promote joint research & development.
The solution is clear: to keep the planet liveable, every country and sector must fast-track their #ClimateAction efforts. No more excuses. No more delays.
Follow the actions at the @UN Climate Ambition Summit:
Our @MartinPei_SSAB and @VolvoGroup in a panel by #LeadIT at #ClimateWeekNYC:
"Value chain cooperation shows it's necessary and possible to decarbonize steel and vehicles but challenges remain. Speed and timing are important and policymakers must now ensure enabling conditions."

We finally have a scientific health check for the entire planet! 6 of 9 planetary boundaries currently transgressed. This does not mean irreversible collapse, but we are losing resilience. We are putting the stability of the entire earth system at risk.

Today's workshop sparks dialogues on potential paths to reduce #steel sector emissions, says @Mahendra1_ZA.

"My country only emits 1% of global emissions. What it does makes no difference".
It's a common claim.
But add up the emissions of countries that emit less than 2% each (a 'negligible amount') – they emit more than China.
Imagine if they all decided to do nothing.
Spring is coming! And so is the EU Net Zero Industry Act (NZIA): a key piece of the European Commission’s answer to the US Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).
So what should NZIA have to match the IRA? Let’s unpack this in today’s #CleanTechEU thread!

Steel: The agreed #EUETS reform & #CBAM puts a phase-out of coal-based blast furnaces in the 🇪🇺 by 2034 within reach!
For industrialised steelmaking countries, this will become a new important benchmark. A very strong signal to accelerate the global steel transformation. 🧵1/7
Q: Why does it matter internationally?
A: If 🇪🇺 was a country, it would be the world’s 2nd largest steel producer. For industrialised countries, especially the non-EU G7 countries, a potential blast furnace phase-out by 2034 will become a new benchmark to compare against. 6/7
Precis som att vi har högre priser idag än vi skulle ha haft om inte kärnkraft lagts ner så har vi högre priser därför att ny vindkraft inte kunnat byggas, för att de fått avslag.
