Transformative Investment in Climate Smart Agriculture
In partnership with the Climate Group and FINTECH.TV, The Nest Summit is an official event of Climate Week NYC, dedicated to advancing sustainability in the US by convening the organizations, visionary researchers, and influential policymakers driving climate action and leading the way to a cleaner and safer environment.Join the U.S. Farmers and Ranchers in Action and World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) for a panel on transformative investment in climate-smart agriculture. U.S. agriculture has the opportunity to significantly drawdown atmospheric carbon and the potential to be the first ‘carbon positive’ sector in the U.S. economy. However, farmers and ranchers can’t and shouldn’t do it alone. They and rural communities should gain economically from the improvements made to create healthier soil, conserve water, and protect nature. US food and agriculture companies have an opportunity to move toward decarbonizing their businesses while unlocking benefits to their top and bottom lines, all while helping improve human equity and environmental sustainability across their value chains. And, investors have much to gain from owning companies that manage risk and innovate to drive sustainable practices across their portfolios.

Investing in Water and Climate Risk
In partnership with the Climate Group and FINTECH.TV, The Nest Summit is an official event of Climate Week NYC, dedicated to advancing sustainability in the US by convening the organizations, visionary researchers, and influential policymakers driving climate action and leading the way to a cleaner and safer environment.From private equity to public equities, the nature of investments as we transition past the COVID season of 2020 has never been more critical. We must restore our planet through ESG-lens capital deployment, allocation, and rebalancing. This discussion between Jeff Gitterman and Matt Diserio covers much more than extreme heat, weather events, and how to analyze investing in water for humanity's future. The Nest Summit covers all the essentials, such as how water is the primary resource for the 4th Industrial Revolution, similar to oil in the previous era of booming economic realization globally.
Deeper Data on Institutional ESG Strategies
In partnership with the Climate Group and FINTECH.TV, The Nest Summit is an official event of Climate Week NYC, dedicated to advancing sustainability in the US by convening the organizations, visionary researchers, and influential policymakers driving climate action and leading the way to a cleaner and safer environment.Pensions, endowments, foundations, family offices, wealth managers, and other institutional investors have long been interested in managers that factor ESG into their process, but it’s historically been hard to evaluate those managers on a peer basis. These investors have struggled to collect ESG data, then aggregate and standardize it for apples-to-apples comparisons. At the same time, managers with ESG strategies have been challenged to keep up with these data requests. eVestment’s next-generation ESG questionnaire solves both sides of the equation by making it easy for ESG managers to highlight what makes their approach unique and providing a single point of access to data from thousands of managers in one platform for investors and consultants. In this interview, eVestment’s Erika Spence will describe how the questionnaire gets behind greenwashing by delving into how each ESG strategy actually implements its philosophy, the inputs used by the portfolio team, and the extent to which the firm itself incorporates ESG into its corporate management.

Rating Physical Assets in the Face of Climate Change
In partnership with the Climate Group and FINTECH.TV, The Nest Summit is an official event of Climate Week NYC, dedicated to advancing sustainability in the US by convening the organizations, visionary researchers, and influential policymakers driving climate action and leading the way to a cleaner and safer environment.Investors lack the tools to anticipate, quantify, respond to extreme weather events, the on-coming impacts to their equity portfolios, and how best to calibrate for force majeure scenarios. Dozens of sophisticated climate models run by the world's leading academic institutions forecast changes in the earth's systems. Still, their outputs are extraordinarily complex and require specialized programming skills and computers to access and process. Chris J. Goolgasian, Yoon Kim, and Swami Venkataraman give us a better understanding of how these risks work, what we need to know, and the longer-term slower onset is occurring.
Climate Change Impact: Lost Glacier of Iceland
In partnership with the Climate Group and FINTECH.TV, The Nest Summit is an official event of Climate Week NYC, dedicated to advancing sustainability in the US by convening the organizations, visionary researchers, and influential policymakers driving climate action and leading the way to a cleaner and safer environment.Live from Javits Center in The Nest Summit at Climate Week NYC, today we discuss the implications of climate change with Oddur Sigurðsson who is the geologist at the Icelandic Meteorological Office. Oddur founded a beautiful glacier and studied how it has been diminishing, now not even classified as a glacier and dead ice in 2014. Known to most school kids in Iceland, this particular glacier disappearing was shocking for many who grew up there. The carbon dioxide issue is the main issue that causes global warming in the atmosphere. Simple as Oddur puts it.
