Capgemini and TERI, announced today the launch of their joint concept note titled “Emission Reductions and Beyond: A Capgemini-TERI concept note”, showcasing their combined perspectives on the climate change crisis, the need for systemic overhauls, industry preparedness, and their institutional offerings to help the industry overcome associated challenges in hope for a sustainable future.

Just days after a universally touted climate-friendly, green growth-focused Union Budget for 2023 was presented by the Finance Minister of India, the joint whitepaper is an indication of the collective expertise in knowledge, perspectives, and innovative solutions which Capgemini and TERI can leverage to not only drive decarbonization and net-zero pathways for India and globally, but also work on other critical global issues like the food crisis and ocean sustainability.

The concept paper elucidates on how tackling the climate change crisis and accelerating sustainable development across areas including and beyond emission reduction, requires new systemic approaches, better execution of international sustainability-focused agreements and more awareness and preparedness of industries, which is yet to fully absorb and act upon the strong business case for sustainability and net-zero emissions, referencing various research reports by Capgemini and TERI.
