In June 2019, the UK became the first major economy to enshrine #netzero by 2050 in law. The following graphics convey the accelerating momentum for net zero globally. It's not just countries leading the charge — states, cities, companies, sports teams and whole industries are also getting in on the net zero act. For the most up-to-date net zero 'standings', please refer to our Net Zero Tracker.
