Techonomy Climate NYC: Solutions That Scale
Presented by Worth Media in partnership with EDF
If thereโs one thing we can all agree on, no silver bullet will solve climate change. Addressing the biggest crisis of our lifetime will require a diversified approach that includes carbon removal & sequestration, lower consumption, reliable renewable energy, and nature-based solutions. It will also take the efforts and collaboration of governments, investors, businesses, technology, and other constituent groups to solve the problem.
