COMING UP AT SCEWC25

ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

Here you’ll find all the content relating to the Energy & Environment sectors that will be covered at SCEWC25.

ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

We can still discuss the two major prongs of climate action: adaptation and mitigation strategies. But they are both equally important and time sensitive as climate emergency poses significant threats to cities around the world. Nature-based solutions, regenerative-by-design models and digital tools to build resilience, alongside the urgent need for sustainable funding models, are necessary to avoid adverse consequences. What do cities need to keep up with the latest developments and be able to act responsibly?
