Climate Change & Shareholder Engagement with Bruce Duguid and Mark Sherlock
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.
Nearly all companies have exposure to climate change; we must commit to zero the carbon emission at the highest level. Shareholder engagement had never been more crucial on climate change that now, taking ownership of the decision-making of climate change adaption will improve long-term sustainability and stakeholder buy-in of climate change adaption interventions. Bruce Duguid and Mark Sherlock explain the importance of investment and engagement rather than divesting, how significant climate change is for stewardship, and some notable companies are working towards zero carbon emission.
