Amina J. Mohammed: A new perspective on the journey to net-zero | TED Countdown

Climate action can be a vehicle to deliver dignity, opportunity and equality for all. UN Deputy Secretary-General Amina J. Mohammed invites us to reimagine what the journey to net-zero could look like if we invest in people's climate efforts while prioritizing the 17 Sustainable Development Goals -- a blueprint of interlinked global goals to protect humanity and our warming planet. "It's time to make some serious noise to transform our world," she says.

I am from India and deeply realise what she is saying. Transportation of coal earns me living and is there chance that people like me will have a job transition? Don't doubt my concerns about combating climate change.

What a fantastic business language “Net zero” is!!! It’s the greatest “zero sum” business ever!!! When Mother Earth plays the zero sum game, Masters of the world have no option but to comply!!!

[TomNook.]

Nothing major will change. Until we have legally binding, annual targets with large penalties for not meeting them - then net zero will never happen. Stating a year 30 years from now is just kicking responsibility down the road to the next generation i.e. our children.
