The Nordic countries are among the first in the world to commit not only to net-zero emissions but also to becoming net-negative soon after. United by regional cooperation, renewable energy, and ambitious policy frameworks, they are proving what’s possible in practice. As the world hesitates, can the Nordics inspire bolder climate action?
