4、infrastructure without rapid decarbonisation,the losses will continue to mount.The decisions Asia Pacific leaders make over the next decade will be felt across the world.But currently the collective climate commitments of Asia Pacific countries and all countries globally are falling short of what is
5、 needed to avert the worst impacts of climate change.Through coordinated action,Asia Pacific countries can drive global efforts to turn the tide on the climate crisis and reap the benefits of global leadership.But we need the skills to drive the transition and harness Asia Pacifics unique position,e

7、ard work,and determination,will create the solutions needed to solve the worlds most pressing climate challenges.Starting with decarbonisation,we must transform the underlying production systems of our economy,embracing circularity,biodiversity,artificial intelligence,robotics,digital manufacturing,
8、and smart infrastructure.We have some of the worlds brightest talent and we are starting to witness the rise of a Green Collar workforce.In fact,Deloitte estimates 80%of the skills needed for the zeroemissions transition in the shorttomedium term already exist in todays workforce.However,over 40%of
9、Asia Pacific workers are currently employed in industries that are under threat from climate change and the transition to net zero.The global struggle against climate change must be fought and won in Asia Pacific.03How governments act individually and collectively to support these workers to adapt,c
10、ontribute and thrive as our economy transforms will be one of the biggest determinates of equality in the coming decades.No country can do it alone,but together it is possible to influence a just transition where the benefits far surpass the cost.In this report we present our Green Collar workforce

13、zero in Asia PacificExecutive summary020506Work towards net zero in Asia Pacific Asia Pacific has much to gain from investing in green innovation and decarbonisation,and the most to lose from inaction.Workers will be the foundation of the net zero transition.How leaders invest in the development and
14、 resiliency of their workforce will determine if the climate challenge is won or lost.Climate inaction is the greatest threat to the Asia Pacific region,but a poorly planned transition could perpetuate inequalities and curb growth.Temperatures are rising twice as fast in Asia as anywhere else in the
15、 world1.The increasing frequency of climate-related disasters is devastating ecosystems and communities and translating into painful commercial and economic losses.Asia Pacific countries face the dual risk of being highly exposed to the physical impacts of climate change,and a high employment rate i

17、o contribute around half of global economic growth this year with the rest of Asia Pacific contributing an additional fifth2.However this growth means that the region is also the source of over half of global greenhouse gas emissions.Rapid decarbonisation in Asia Pacific is critical to tackling the
18、climate crisis,but countries must strike a delicate balance to ensure the transition focuses on distribution and growth quality to ensure equitable outcomes for all regions and communities.Transforming Asia Pacific economies to net zero is an unprecedented economic opportunity with the potential to
19、create 180 million jobs.Deloittes Turning Point research showed that accelerated climate action can significantly boost GDP and drive phenomenal growth in Asia Pacific3.With abundant natural,human and technological capital,the region is uniquely positioned to build and scale the solutions needed to
20、accelerate the global transition to net zero.Asia Pacifics strengths in industrial and digital technologies offer significant opportunities for leadership across the future of all low-carbon systems,including mobility,energy,manufacturing,food and land use.If Asia Pacific countries seize the decarbo
21、nisation opportunity,they could add$47 trillion to the regions economies by 2070 and create 180 million jobs by 20504.A focus on green skills can chart the path to climate-resilient growth and shared prosperity.Reaching net zero and averting the worst impacts of climate change will require a highly
22、skilled workforce to drive the transition.Governments must partner with businesses,education,and training institutions to ensure that,as the transition unfolds,the right skills are available at the right time.Building this adaptive pipeline of green talent will require significant investment in educ
23、ation and training systems across the Asia Pacific region.Careful planning is needed to protect workers whose jobs are disrupted and support them to adapt,upskill or transition into highervalue employment pathways.Universal social protection systems and skills promotion will be critical components t
24、o facilitate a just transition,and protect people and economies from climate change.Climate inaction is the greatest threat to the Asia Pacific region,but a poorly planned transition could perpetuate inequalities and curb growth.07A Green Collar workforce is emerging,but green skills policy readines

26、ergy.However,currently the collective climate commitments of the region need to catch up to what is necessary to limit climate change5.Similarly,green skills policy readiness varies widely,and some need to develop robust social protections and put just transition plans in place.In a region shaped by
27、 diverse levels of wealth and economic maturity,as well as varying levels of development and social progress,it is essential to recognise that every country has a different starting point and unique challenges.Overcoming these will require an unprecedented effort with radical collaboration across bo
28、rders and industries.Proactive public policy must step up to drive a prosperous and equitable future for all.The Deloitte Economic Institute has developed a Green Collar workforce policy agenda to guide decision-makers on how to support industries and workers to adapt to a new economy.This report bu
