About this episode
Cities are critical drivers of commerce and innovation, and important focal points for community and culture. While they only cover about 3-4% of the world’s surface, they produce 75% of global GDP and contribute to over more than 70% of global carbon emissions. As we move to a net zero future, it’s clear that urban areas will have a crucial role to play in achieving this goal.
In this episode, Greg Clark, Group Advisor, Future Cities and New Industries, HSBC, discusses decarbonisation in cities, including strategies, policies and the shifts in behaviour that will facilitate the transition. This talk is from the FT Climate Capital: Developing Sustainable Future Cities event in November 2021.
