Rapidly reduce
The urgent need to rapidly reduce carbon dioxide emissions to avoid uncontrollable climate change and fulfil the requirements of the Paris Agreement shapes decisions on how to define, design, and implement the energy transition in the Netherlands. The energy transition is closely intertwined with essentially all Sustainable Developments Goals (SDGs), but its wider effects are seldom taken into account or studied in detail.
The goal of this interdisciplinary initiative is to stimulate and initiate research across faculties that maps the energy transition in the Netherlands and Europe against the SDGs beyond Dutch borders.
