SUMMARY:Climate Bonds Connect 2022 - Global Conference London
DESCRIPTION:Global Conference – 20 October 2022\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor the 7th year running\, our Climate Bonds annual conference\, now part of the Climate Bonds CONNECT event series\, continues to frame the global discourse and agenda on climate finance.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs climate impacts batter communities on all continents\, scientists agree we are facing a climate emergency and the window of opportunity to align our economies to a safer 1.5-degree pathway is closing fast. With so much volatility – where concerns about our planet’s future and its climate intersect with petrostate wars; food shortages; health pandemics; species extinction; cost of living increases and more\, we have to find solutions fast. It will not be easy\, but there is hope.  The majority of the world’s institutional investors are aware of the risk such volatility poses to their portfolios if action is not taken. They have a mandate to ensure risk is mitigated over the long term – and they want to act.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUnder the theme ‘Mobilising $5trillion of Climate Bonds per year by 2025\, this year’s Climate Bonds Global Conference will include discussion sessions with opportunity and solutions-driven conversations teasing out the most relevant topics that bridge science\, policy and finance. Top speakers\, thought leaders\, decision-makers and influencers will discuss the challenges and current trends that shape the future of green finance in emerging and developed markets\, including topics on taxonomies\, policy guidance and transition pathways. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClimate Bonds Connect 2022: Combining the power of in-person and with the reach of online participation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Global Conference benefits from a hybrid (online and in-person invitation only) format\, allowing for a wider global audience to be connected to the discussions. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe event will gather investors; asset owners; governments; banks; issuers; regulators among others and provide ample opportunity for networking and building connections. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by ClimateBonds\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News.

SUMMARY:Navigating Energy Pathways for Climate Ambition: The implications of 1.5°C scenarios for Paris-aligned energy transitions
DESCRIPTION:Energy scenarios have a key role to play in guiding the energy system transformation needed to meet the 1.5°C temperature limit under the Paris Agreement. These scenarios can influence investor expectations and policy decisions. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA new IISD report aims to provide policy-makers\, investors\, and companies with information on how to align energy decision-making with Paris Agreement goals. It conducts an unprecedented analysis of the most influential modelled pathways consistent with limiting warming to 1.5°C. The research shows a high level of agreement among these scenarios with implications for the phase-out of oil and gas and the ramp-up of clean energy deployment and investment. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe webinar will provide a first look at the key findings from this authoritative report highlighting the implications of 1.5°C scenarios for fossil fuel phase-out and renewables scale-up\, barriers to those transitions and solutions to such challenges\, and tools for governments and financial institutions to navigate the current energy crisis while maintaining climate ambition. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPanellists from intergovernmental organizations and the scientific community will reflect on the key findings of the report and discuss its implications for energy decision-making. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by IISD_news\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News.

SUMMARY:Climate Risk Insight Hour
DESCRIPTION:Recalibrating what it will take to achieve net-zero\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe pathway to net zero will take significant time and money. Trillions of dollars in investment will be required to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050\, with annual spending needing to increase by 60%. The shift to net zero also invites social\, political and structural changes. It is estimated to create 200m jobs by 2050\, though some 185m jobs may be lost\, according to a study by McKinsey & Company. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs more firms work on decarbonisation activities\, the opportunities\, costs\, trade-offs and uneven nature of the transition becomes more apparent. And it is unclear how geopolitical crises\, such as the war in Ukraine\, may affect the pace of the transition to net zero for companies and countries. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat short- and long-term social and economic adjustments must be made in the transition to net zero? How do these differ across regions\, sectors and communities? What has been the effect of recent geopolitical events on decarbonisation strategies? Do shocks like the war in Ukraine threaten to upend the sustainability agenda\, or could they hasten its progress? How are business leaders preparing for volatility in the energy sector? And what does this mean for companies’ investment strategies? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by EconomistEvents\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News.
