The Finnish Innovation Fund Sitra has teamed up with the Nordic Council of Ministers, distinguished research institutions and think tanks to answer a simple question: how far could we go simply by scaling up already proven low-carbon solutions?
Since 2015, the Green to Scale project analyses how existing solutions from sectors such as energy, mobility and transportation, buildings and waste, have uncovered a vast emission reduction potential both globally and in specific countries.
Implementing existing low-carbon solutions can take us a long way in tackling the global climate crisis.
