Launched in 2020, Race to Zero works to build global momentum for the sprint towards net zero targets. The campaign aims to rally non-state climate leaders and decarbonisation initiatives around the world to successfully achieve net zero emissions by 2050. It is the bold ambition from Pakistan’s leading companies to achieve science-based net zero targets that has enabled Net Zero Pakistan to be recognised at this global UN-backed platform.
