Net-Zero America

Net-Zero America: Potential Pathways, Infrastructure, and Impacts, a report issued in December by a large team centered at Princeton University, analyzes five possible pathways for achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. It has been praised as the most thorough examination to date of deep decarbonization strategies. It quantifies and maps the infrastructure that will need to be built and the investment that will need to be made to achieve net-zero. It shows how jobs and health will be affected in each state.

In this webinar, the report’s co-principal investigators described the report’s methodology and highlighted findings of special interest to state policymakers. The webinar was moderated by CESA Executive Director Warren Leon.
