Global pressure for climate action and delivering net zero continues to accelerate at pace. The science is clear, and the market is moving from acceptance to purpose-led action. Business and governments are mobilising at scale. Regulators, investors, workforce, and customers are increasingly demanding evidence of net zero progress.
PwC's Asia Pacific edition of the Net Zero Economy Index analyses the region's state of net zero transition to inform governments, businesses and investors of the decarbonisation progress and opportunities for policy alignment and innovation across the economies. Asia Pacific outperforms the rest of the world on decarbonisation rate in 2021, but is still far behind what is needed to limit warming to 1.5°C.
Now is the critical time to act. To act with purpose, trust, and transparency.
Where can you start?
No matter where you are on your journey, just starting out or being more ambitious, PwC’s decarbonisation services will give you a better understanding of where you are and how to get where you want to go. In 2020, Microsoft commissioned PwC UK to produce The Building Blocks for Net Zero Transformation, a report that provides a practical framework that businesses can use to guide them on how to embed net zero into a company’s strategy and operating model for a successful decarbonisation transformation.
