About the webinar<\/span><\/h2>\n

This webinar presented and discussed the key findings of a recently released report from the UNEP DTU Partnership, which visualized a pathway for complete decarbonisation of the Latin American and the Caribbean (LAC) regional economy by mid-century, through the review of specific sector-wide actions, within a foreseeable technology and economics context.<\/p>\n

The revision comprises the following actions: a) full decarbonisation of the power sector; b) mass electrification of the transport sector; c) grid integration of the regional economies; d) expansion of the power system to absorb the new demand by transport; e) zero net deforestation; f) restoration of about 200 million Ha of degraded land through a combination of natural and assisted reforestation, agroforestry and silvopastures; g) reduction of emissions from agriculture through nutrient management measures; and h) abatement measures in industry.<\/p>\n

The webinar was held in Spanish. If you have any questions about this event, please contact the LEDS LAC Platform Secretariat: info@ledslac.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n
