About this Event
✨ Part of KINDFIRE, the eco-artivist exhibition by GREENy bastARTs during London Climate Action Week 2026.
Join us for an accessible and thought-provoking talk exploring the technologies shaping the transition toward a low-carbon future and the realities behind the path to Net Zero.
Led by sustainability expert Ascanio, this session offers a clear and engaging overview of the main technological solutions currently available for the energy transition, examining both their potential and their limitations.
The talk aims to provide practical and understandable insights into the systems and innovations that are already beginning to transform our daily lives, from renewable energy and mobility to home technologies and infrastructure.
During the talk, we will explore:
🌍 The current climate situation and why ecological transition is urgently needed
🔋 The transformation of energy generation systems
🚲 New technologies for homes, urban mobility, and transportation
🧠 Common myths, misinformation, and misunderstandings around climate and energy
The talk will last approximately 45 minutes and will be followed by a 15-minute audience Q&A.
