There is still much to be done on climate adaptation, which will be a priority topic in 2025

Ayvens Hungary hosted the last Race to Zero working group of the year on 26 November. In her presentation, Tímea Pesti, CEO of the company, stressed that we can do a lot to reduce carbon emissions by thinking more consciously and applying new perspectives. A good example of this is to adapt the vehicles in the company fleet to actual usage needs rather than position.

Dr Barbara Botos, Ambassador at Large for Climate of Ministry for Energy, presented the biggest lessons and achievements of the COP29 climate summit on her return home.

An important element of this is that countries have agreed to set a climate finance target of at least USD 300 billion per year by 2035, with developed countries taking the lead in mobilising and providing climate finance to developing countries.

 

Representing the Deloitte team, Flóra Borek, senior manager and Vanda Seres, senior consultant presented the main results of our recent research “Towards Net Zero”, in which they supported BCSDH as professional partners. One of the main findings is that we are already orders of magnitude better off with our carbon emissions target and concrete measurement and delivery compared to the previous survey period, but there is still a lot of work to be done in the area of climate adaptation. The detailed results of the research will be made available to the wider public in January.

Andrea Nagy, BCSDH’s Race to Zero project manager, briefly outlined the 2025 theme of climate adaptation, helping companies to implement systemic change.

The event was moderated by Irén Márta, Director of BCSDH.
