Net zero emissions is now a paramount goal for the nations of the world but the path to achieving it throws up political and social roadblocks. We turn now to the several interacting barriers to the realization of net zero policies one of which is the political context, and the other the policies that we all strive to implement. Politically, there are also major barriers in the form of a lack of integrated policy frameworks, inadequate political will, and vested interests that may counter transformative change. Simultaneously, social issues, including public perception, equitability, and social exclusion, complicate net zero uptake. Based on empirical evidence, this chapter argues that overcoming these critical challenges requires linking innovative policy solutions to inclusive social strategies. Mitigating climate change and social injustice can indeed be achieved together, firstly through collaboration among the stakeholders to achieve net zero regulation and through facilitating the conducive space for engagement of social capital with the regulatory body. This chapter ultimately suggests the need for an integrated focus that balances political and social considerations in the pursuit of climate action sustainability and equity.
