The organiser says,” sustainability is more than a catchphrase. It is a building block for a world moving to drastically reduce carbon emissions, discover, and develop technologies of the future. Solutions reporters play a critical role in sharing sustainability stories.
“When we hear this word, we tend to think of renewable fuel sources, protecting the environment, and massive international projects and policies for net-zero emissions.”
