Statement:
"We have the technology to solve the climate challenges in a 50-year perspective at an acceptable cost. This is a political rather than a technological challenge. To implement effective technological solutions, we need broad international cooperation and regulatory conditions that provide a basis for the necessary investments. We should see climate and the environment as an opportunity, not an obstacle. The future belongs to those who succeed in developing tomorrow's solutions for generating energy and producing goods with less impact on the environment."
