Following its selection as one of the Net Zero Cities Mission's 100 cities, the Municipality of Padova has embarked on a journey to revise its own decarbonization plan, the SECAP, with the goal of switching from its 2030 target of halving greenhouse gas emissions to climate neutrality.
This new goal is a real step change, allowing the local authority to draw up a new vision for the city with an increasing focus on environmental and social sustainability. Although Padova started on its path to reducing the city's carbon footprint a long time ago (the first plan dates back to the late '90s), reaching climate neutrality entails a profound change, in terms of both new projects and synergies between various local stakeholders, and in letting go of entrenched habits and behaviours that, while firmly rooted in our everyday lives, are now clearly incompatible with a climate-neutral city.
