Time: 11:45-13:00 CEST

Ethical values guide transformative policies critical to human well being and planetary health. We inform State Parties revising NDCs of policies for rapid reduction of GHG emissions that support ecosystems and biodiversity, avoiding reliance on large scale ‘techno-fixes’ that intensify risks.
