Asia is the fastest-growing region globally, but that growth has come with a price. Carbon emissions are warming the planet and causing a climate emergency. The continent accounts for almost half of the world’s energy demand and is now the highest emitting region. But now Asia, and the world, are in a race to decarbonise. A new documentary series by Temasek, in partnership with Mediacorp, takes a close-up look at what Asia is doing to decarbonise and keep up with the global race to net-zero by 2050.
The three-part series spotlights the renewable energy transition in Asia, the challenges and decarbonisation pathways for hard-to-abate sectors of aviation and maritime, and how carbon markets and private capital can catalyse breakthroughs and innovations in solutions for the climate crisis.
