An important part of the fight against climate change is the imperative to transition to climate-neutral industrial production. Globally, manufacturing activities contribute around 27% of the world’s annual greenhouse gas emissions, of which around three quarters comes from energy-intensive industries, such as steel, cement, chemicals, ceramics, glass, pulp and paper, etc.
With the launch of the “European Green Deal” in 2020, the EU began to put in place a major package of new legislation with the Clean Industrial Deal at its core, to kick-start the transition to climate-neutral and circular industrial production. Nevertheless, much remains to be done. The current European legislative period is a crucial moment to strengthen this policy framework.
As an independent, climate policy think tank,Agora has been pursuing the goal of achieving a climate-neutral economy since 2012. With around 190 employees at four locations worldwide, including offices in Brussels, Berlin, Bangkok and Beijing, we combine research, dialogue and public relations in our daily work to support policy makers and stakeholders with the task of governing the transition. In doing so, we work closely with partners in numerous countries, and we act independently and free of economic or party-political interests.
