SUMMARY:Creating the first international law roadmap to net zero: where t
 he law needs to enable climate change success\, and how lawyers can get 
 it there
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, countries\, corporations and other actors h
 ave announced commitments to address climate change by developing roadma
 ps to “net zero” - the point at which greenhouse gas emissions have a ne
 utral impact on the climate. While there has been dramatic growth in the
  number of voluntary corporate commitments and government targets under 
 the Paris Agreement\, the legal roadmap to net zero remains vastly under
 developed. Developing a legal roadmap to net zero has the opportunity to
  create both carrots and sticks approaches to enable governments to acce
 lerate net zero efforts\, to foster environments where companies are inc
 entivised to control and limit emissions\, and where the public has oppo
 rtunities to participate in advancing climate change policies and addres
 s adaptation. This panel will focus on how to create the first internati
 onal law roadmap to net zero - a set of aspirational milestones for coun
 tries\, companies and the public to achieve in order to facilitate succe
 ss toward political and corporate net zero goals (including the building
  blocks of legal frameworks critical to these goals). The panel also wil
 l also focus on the role of lawyers in developing and implementing these
  milestones domestically to help ensure the law is in a position to achi
 eve broader net zero goals.
