Why the global net-zero strategy is fundamentally flawed
In short: Microsoft's first chief environmental officer, Lucas Joppa, views climate change through the lens of coding. This video explores why our current net-zero strategies are failing and proposes a logical, four-point plan to ensure we reach zero additional carbon emissions by 2050.
Lucas Joppa argues that the existing global approach to net-zero contains fundamental errors, or 'bugs,' that prevent us from effectively addressing climate change. To succeed, the world must develop a system capable of accounting for all global carbon emissions.
This footage details a logical method to ensure no extra carbon enters the atmosphere by 2050, redirecting our present ecological path.
