FN:s nya klimatrapport visar att det går att nå nollutsläpp år 2050. Men det krävs stora förändringar inom alla branscher för att nå dit – inte minst inom industrin som i dag står för en stor del av de globala utsläppen. Forskarna har identifierat flera hållbara vägar framåt, men en del områden – framför allt inom plast och kemi – letar fortfarande efter möjliga omställningsvägar. Att begränsa kli
