The appointment of Dr Sultan Al Jaber as President-designate of COP28, the UN climate change conference, signals the importance of cooperation. The choice of ADNOC's CEO puts the energy sector at the center of the global effort to achieve Net Zero. dr. Al Jaber called for a "major course correction" to speed up efforts to address the climate crisis. Governments alone cannot achieve this. This will require business measures, particularly within the energy industry. Cooperation at the industry level, with finance and governments can move the dial towards 1.5 degrees.
