Why is climate change important?
why climate active?
Transition to a low carbon world
- Transition to a low carbon world is critical and needs to accelerate. The world has set itself a target to keep temperature increases well below 2°C, and ideally 1.5°C (the Paris Climate Accord goals), which means we must collectively ensure net carbon emissions come down to zero
- The investment community must play its part in accelerating change, to align our long-term financial risks with the long- term sustainability of our planet
- Transition requires a significant reallocation of capital from carbon intensive activities to those that will provide solutions
