undia/china need to be on same side of equty debate- half of peoples

hat isrudd view that asia can geton same side due to climare - science will get there - since copenhaged2009 when china blocked- china has done reading and become progresslrader- can see future consequences- india uch further behing on whole develppmemt curve - sxienbce will land both countries on rght side of hostor but willit be in time bedfpre asia is half of emissions

our risk is we are coal-based - do we really understand our specific transition challenge - we need clear road map on how given where our energy is historically

-imporatnce of how women leadersvuniquely contribute- higher level of social priority-- women used to higher risks/burdens - have been left out in past- hugevlead if now included in locally;; innovation and participation of women at every level can be womens step up/womens contribution and responsibility - women call acrion

----closing thoughts

suntory- we have the tech

combination of geography, plicy -impossible to do all once - need tranparent graduatio approach (blie green hydrogem)- netzero needs to connect ocean, biodiversity

 bremner - kevin note of oprtmism

we agreb on science

we agre 1.2 degree of warming already ka=hhapen expoentially raising

most iportant summitblargely take can - china rusiia aonwt be there - america will turn up with no real policy

need to clarify where leadership is not pretend - s that why we call asia to lead the transparent summits

Session #2: Plastics: Unlocking sustainable solutions

Friday, October 22, 2021
8 am ET / 8 pm SGT

• Sustainable Plastic: Since its invention, plastic has enabled innovation in manufacturing, healthcare, engineering, food storage and transportation, to name a few. But irresponsible and illegal approaches to plastic waste management, along with unclear or absent recycling regulations have turned it into a global problem. Will a shift away from plastics to alternative materials be better for the environment and cut emissions? Are there safer, more sustainable ways to use plastic?
• The Roadmap to Circularity: What are the practical pathways and current roadblocks to a “circular economy”? How do we change attitudes and behaviors and move towards greater societal participation in recycling and reuse solutions? What role do policymakers have to play in this transition?

Speakers:

• Ian Bremmer, President and Founder, Eurasia Group and GZERO Media
• Tak Niinami, CEO, Suntory Holdings
• Shari Friedman, Managing Director of Climate and Sustainability, Eurasia Group
• Rob Kaplan, CEO, Circulate Capital
• Sean Kidney, CEO, Climate Bonds Initiative
• Aloke Lohia, CEO, Indorama Ventures
• Tadashi Maeda, Governor, Japan Bank for International Cooperation
• Hannah Testa, Activist

Anchoring the Summit is a new research report prepared by Eurasia Group, “Unlocking Sustainable Plastics in Asia,” which advocates for a much more dynamic role for both the public and private sector in Asia to counter the proliferation of single-use plastic containers, which have had an outsized impact on the environment.
