Integrity Matters: Net Zero Commitments by Businesses, Financial Institutions, Cities and Regions – Report from the United Nations’ High-Level Expert Group on the Net Zero Emissions Commitments of Non-State Entities

 

“The United Nations Secretary-General, António Guterres, on 31 March 2022, established a High-Level Expert Group on the Net-Zero Emissions Commitments of Non-State Entities to develop stronger and clearer standards for net-zero emissions pledges by non-State entities – including businesses, investors, cities, and regions – and speed up their implementation. The ten recommendations, outlined in the report, are a how-to guide for credible, accountable net-zero pledges and detail what non-State actors need to consider through each stage of their progress towards achieving net-zero ambitions and addressing the climate crisis.”
