The TUC is holding a webinar on January 18th to explore how to plan fair and successful paths to net zero emissions

The webinar will discuss the TUC's Voice and Place – how to plan fair and successful paths to net zero emissions report.

Moving to a low-carbon economy is essential for tackling the existential threat posed by climate change. Done well, it also offers an opportunity to provide high-quality jobs around the country and reduce some of the damaging inequalities between UK regions.

This online event will explore how decarbonisation is already affecting different areas of the country, and how trade unions and workers can be at the heart of the transition to net zero.

Speakers

• Chair: Beth Farhat, regional secretary, TUC Northern
• Steve Rotheram, metro mayor of Liverpool City Region
• Sue Ferns, senior deputy general secretary, Prospect
• Andy Gouldson, professor of environmental policy, Centre for Climate Change Economics and Policy, University of Leeds

The webinar takes place on Monday 18 January 2021 from 16:00 to 17:00. To book a place click on the “How to plan fair and successful paths to net zero emissions” link.
