Climate Change & Transitioning to a Post-Carbon Future
“Climate change is no longer just an environmental problem, it is a business problem.” - Michael Bloomberg, American business leader and the 9th wealthiest person in the world
“Transition to a carbon-free economy poses the biggest risk to the financial system over the medium-term.” - Mark Carney, Head of The Bank of England, the UK’s Central bank, and the future head of the International Monetary Fund
Business leaders are in the process of transitioning and adjusting their businesses to a post-carbon economy. The speed at which businesses complete this transition will determine the severity of future impacts on their bottom line and the economy.
We are past the point where the financial risks of not immediately acting on climate change are much higher than the risks of acting.
So what type of business leadership is needed under these circumstances?
It is a way of leading that is receptive and open to the facts of our times without the blinkers of prejudgement, bias, belief, or hubris. The ability to look at the reality of the present as well as the possibilities of the future and act with both risks and opportunities in mind.
This time is calling for a wholehearted approach to business.
