The Modern Government: Pathways to Decarbonization

Driven by changing global norms, national security challenges, and evolving public expectations, it’s essential today’s Modern Government lead the way on key climate and decarbonization initiatives. While their capability to address these issues is nothing new, recent policy changes in agencies like the Department of Defense designed to combat emissions, curb rising energy costs, and develop the next generation of climate technologies have signaled new priorities for those working to secure our nation. As the world continues to press for a net-zero future, it’s essential that those working to meet expectations do their best to deliver a pathway to this ambitious and important goal.

In the second installment of our Modern Government series, GovExec and KPMG will explore key trends and priorities in the climate policy landscape, learn benefits of a forward thinking decarbonization policy, and hear from public sector officials as they take decisive action on important carbon reduction goals.
