At The Bartlett we’re working together to take action on the climate crisis, and build a future with net zero carbon emissions. From the transition to clean energy, to the role of cities in achieving net zero, there are a range of crucial issues at stake.
In the months following COP26, we all have continue to have the opportunity to take action. Below, you will find content from our world-leading experts at The Bartlett on some of the key issues at stake, potential ways forward – and what you can do to create change.
197 parties met in November 2021 to determine the future of our climate.
The Conference of Parties, or ‘COP’ is a global United Nations climate change summit. In November 2021 the UK Government co-hosted COP26 with the Government of Italy in Glasgow, with heads of state, climate experts and negotiators aiming to agree coordinated action to tackle the climate crisis and reach net zero carbon emissions.
From the transition to clean energy, to the role of cities in achieving net zero, there are a range of crucial issues were at stake.
Bartlett Net Zero 2030
Our work continues beyond the conclusion of COP26 and the Together for Climate Action campaign. The Bartlett engages deeply with the climate emergency in teaching and research. We have also pledged to become a net-zero faculty by 2030. Learn more about this and how we intend to get there at the Bartlett Net Zero 2030 hub.
Unlocking solutions to the climate crisis
Sectors
A look in greater detail at the economic sectors that will be most affected by having to reduce emissions: buildings, agriculture and land use, and transport.
Economy and industry
Shifting away from fossil fuels will have significant implications for individual economic sectors and jobs as well as on communities and individuals.
The built environment
View our resources below to explore the key issues, and solutions, in more detail.
Climate change and health
We explore the benefits of mitigation on our physical and mental health.
Energy
There is much uncertainty surrounding the future of energy on the path to net zero, especially if fossil fuels must be phased out to achieve this goal.
The energy transition
Getting to net zero will require enormous societal change.
The road to net zero
Building a net zero future is crucial for our planet, and it is one of the main aims of the COP26 climate summit being held in November 2021.
