Information

The panel will discuss the increasing responsibility of organisations towards climate change as it comes to the urgent goal of reducing GHG emissions to prevent the devastating impacts of climate change. For corporations, those impacts include physical risks, including the risks that producing facilities could be destroyed by fire or flood, and risks related to the global transition to a low-carbon economy. The latter risks include policy action, legal, market change and technological innovations. The panel will discuss the need for robust disclosure by companies regarding climate-related risks, and the evolving practices of assessing, managing and communicating about climate risks.

This session will be presented in English.
