Italy needs to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. Starting from the assumption that this only implies a technological transition, reaching this goal within the current economic model (unlimited growth) is unlikely without Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology. Scientific concerns exist about CCS potentially shifting environmental burdens to future generations. The article argues that achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 hinges on embracing the principles of circular economy and agroecology. This path, however, demands a fundamental transformation of our economic and cultural models, necessitating a move away from unbridled consumerism.
