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.Welcome to The Nest Summit at Climate Week NYC, powered by FINTECH.TV, where we discuss social networking sites and how Ingmar Rentzhog founded We Don’t Have Time as Donald J. Trump, President of the United States of America, drove him to this action. Ingmar saw the problem with people being scared away as they spoke the truth. He broke through the barriers and shows the world how we can all be part of the change needed on climate change with technology combined with our will – enough people to do it.

Synova, for example, can take the municipal solid waste and other forms of waste, such as agricultural waste, and can create energy from these things that were formerly put into the ground. From energy conversion to re-use of plastic, these impact initiatives are how capital markets flow are re-aligning to the most ESG oriented investments possible.

They will explore system-wide global solutions to climate change, including renewable energy, oil policy, carbon removal, energy efficiency, carbon pricing, electrification, and other policies. The simulator was built by Climate Interactive and MIT Sloan and has been used in settings ranging from the US Congress to the U.N. Secretary-General’s climate team to HSBC. Climate Interactive and MIT Sloan previously developed “C-ROADS”, the climate simulation that was used by John Holdren, Jonathan Pershing, and John Kerry in support of the Copenhagen and Paris climate summits.

Backed by an Advisory Board including 4 IPCC Nobel Prize-winning scientists, and strategic partners including Aon, IBM, the AICPA, and LMI Consulting, our mission is to embed climate risk data into financial decision-making and facilitate the world’s transition to a lower-carbon economy. The Climate Service Climanomics® software platform enables climate risk reporting and disclosure consistent with the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) framework. Outputs from the platform measure and report transition and physical risk and opportunities in financial terms under different climate scenarios. Trusted by clients including the world’s largest banks, asset managers, real estate investors, Fortune 500 firms, and public bodies including the Federal Government, the platform was recently identified as a leader in climate risk analytics by Forrester Research. Investors and regulators around the world have been refining guidance on climate risk and moving closer, in a variety of ways, to making climate risk and TCFD reporting mandatory. The UK just announced its largest pension funds must publish disclosures by the end of 2022. UK banks and insurers are required to do so by the end of 2021. The Canadian government recently tied COVID recovery loans to climate risk reporting, and more. Financial institutions worldwide are employing the Climanomics® platform to support scenario analysis, model physical and transition risks as well as opportunities. During this session, Joseph Lake will touch on key best practices for climate risk analysis in financial services. This address will be given by Joseph Lake, COO of The Climate Service.

At the same tie as they must fund and execute climate adaptation and resilience projects for their jurisdictions and customers, the property value, infrastructure, and populations that underpin their financial health represent exposures to climate risk that will only grow with climate change. With data specific to all bond issuers and obligors now available to assess the need for investment and the risks of not doing so, thought leaders in fixed income are now deploying and integrating this data into strategies, workflows, and decisions. The panelists; Andrew Teras and Chris Hartshorn couple the perspectives of risQ, the emerging municipal climate risk data, and analytics provider, with Breckinridge, an established leader in thematic ESG fixed income investing, and how the municipal bond ecosystem can maximize its value and impact on maximizing climate hygiene.

The underprivileged are of particular importance when planning, experts say, due to the nature of how countries, economies, and communities develop, integrate, and evolve with complementary aspects of humanity. One way to reduce the immediate and long-term impact of a disaster on low-income renters is to ensure that the rental properties they live in (affordable housing) can remain functional throughout the disaster and bounce back to normal operations quickly afterward. Lisa Davis from PGIM Real Estate discusses with Jeffery Gitterman at the Nest Summit.

During the last 10,000 years, our climate has been very stable, and now is becoming unstable. Financial models that we are using models that are missing variables as they were designed without considering the non-linear changes. Spencer Glendon helps us better understand the fundamental risk that capital markets have with the inability to consider climate changes.
