Presented by Net Zero Atlantic and partner researchers
Achieving net-zero emissions requires not only technological advancements but also significant changes in human behaviours. We all have attitudes, values, and beliefs defining how we respond to a crisis. By incorporating a behavioural science lens to the work required to reach our targets, we can aim to ensure that the climate change mitigation solutions proposed are technically feasible, socially acceptable, and economically viable.
"Determining critical behavioural interventions for enabling an effective transition to net-zero emissions in Atlantic Canada" is a Net Zero Atlantic-led project involving academic partners across Atlantic Canada.
Join this webinar to hear a report from Net Zero Atlantic on the project’s progress and to explore how researchers will examine existing barriers and opportunities towards pro-climate behaviours.
To support the mandate of Canada’s Net-Zero Advisory Body related to research, this project was undertaken with the financial support of the Government of Canada. Funding was provided through the Environmental Damages Funds’ Climate Action and Awareness Fund, administered by Environment and Climate Change Canada.
The Net Zero Atlantic Webinar Series features engaging speakers with experience in areas of knowledge valuable to Atlantic Canada's advancement toward a net-zero future. Webinars are free and hosted on Zoom.
