Scaling up renewable energy technologies is technically feasible if the investment environment is supported by government action.

“There is still a challenge in delivery, but it is completely plausible to scale up that kind of technology.”

Derik Broekhoff contends that companies should stop trying to achieve 'net zero' for themselves and instead focus on contributing to global net-zero outcomes.

“Today, I want to challenge the idea that companies should emphasize achieving net zero for themselves rather than focus on how best to contribute to global net zero.”

James Dyke believes net zero policies are problematic because they encourage a dangerous reliance on future carbon removal technologies rather than immediate decarbonization.

“But by introducing carbon removals into climate policies, we have set a trap because it is incredibly seductive to rely on carbon removals in the future instead of rapid decarbonization now.”
