The Polestar 0 project aims to cut carbon emissions by changing the way that cars are made, rather than using traditional processes and then planting trees to offset CO2e. The approach will encompass collaboration across the entire development process and value chain, from suppliers to retailers. Polestar aims to be climate neutral across operations by 040. The project targets what Polestar can measure and control: zero carbon emissions in the production of the car, delivery to customer, and end-of-life. The use phase of an electric car can already today be close to climate neutral if the car is charged with renewable energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>About Sekab<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sekab is a green chemical company.
