Climate Forum Zurich: The challenge of flight emissions

Together with representatives from business, science and administration, we discuss how companies and organizations can reduce their flight-related greenhouse gas emissions and inspire their own employees to travel sustainably.

The event is aimed at companies and organizations. How can companies reduce their flight-related greenhouse gas emissions and inspire their own employees to travel sustainably? Together with you, we would like to explore this question, feel the pulse and define next steps.
