High Level Champion for Climate Action COP26

In this episode Martin Daum welcomes Nigel Topping who acts as the High Level Champion for Climate Action for the 26th United Nations Climate Change Conference scheduled for 2021 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Five Years have passed since the Paris Accord. In 2015 the members of the United Nations agreed on regulations to limit global warming. The main goal was to keep the increase of the global average temperature well below 2 °C above pre-industrial levels.

So in this episode Martin Daum and Nigel Topping talk about how climate action can actually be taken and how fast CO2 neutrality can be implemented to a cost sensitive industry like transportation. And also what a High Level Champion for Climate Action actually does. Enjoy!
