BACKGROUND

Greenhouse gas emissions are expected to return to a high level once the global economy begins to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic, and possibly setting back progress towards attaining Sustainable Development Goal 13 to take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts. This Summit aims to discuss and demonstrate how young environmental professionals across different sectors can take an active role in achieving carbon neutrality in the GBA. It will engage youth through breakout discussions to explore their current and/or potential contributions to climate action in the GBA and their shared vision for the future, as shown in the following programme.
