2020 - The Swiss Net Zero Target
In September 2020, Eawag, CER-ETH, and WSL jointly organized a workshop on the Swiss long-term emissions target. The goal of the workshop was to investigate how the commitment to net zero carbon emissions by 2050 can be achieved in Switzerland with regards to economic, social, and political aspects, as well as identify possible research contributions, current research gaps, and potential synergies or a joint research agenda. Participants came from different universities, research institutions, and the government bringing in various perspectives and expertises of social sciences and policy-making.
