Halla Hrund Logadóttir, Director-General of Iceland's National Energy Authority, and Professor Henry Lee delved into the green transition through an Arctic lens.

Logadottir and Lee shared insights on how some Arctic nations are pioneering the green movement even as geopolitical tensions mount globally, and the implications for COP28 in the United Arab Emirates.
