Breanda will address the decarbonization’s economic, environmental, and societal sustainability. She will examine with us how getting to net zero carbon emissions will take an economy-wide approach. Moreover, coupled with needing to address climate change impacts, increasing resilience can compound or confound affordability and operations.
Join us to learn about the pace of change, primary approaches, and impacts and opportunities.
