Emissions don’t only arise from our use of energy in buildings, in transport, for heating, but also from how we produce and use products and food. 45% of emissions come from the latter and the energy transition alone will not be able to tackle these. We need other solutions too. Systems thinking and a circular economy play a key role in developing these solutions.
