Project Description
The goal of reducing carbon dioxide emissions in Germany to net zero by 2045 at the latest, as outlinked in the Federal Climate Protection Act, requires a fundamental transformation of carbon flows. The wide range of options and their different effects and sustainability implications raise important questions regarding assessment, strategy and implementation.
The KorPSA project clarifies the significance of regional carbon management strategies including negative emissions using the Upper Rhine region as an example, creates the necessary knowledge from a systemic perspective, identifies options for action, promotes networking between stakeholders and thereby supports the sustainable transformation towards climate neutrality in the Upper Rhine region.
