SUMMARY:Sustainable Africa: Investment\, Innovation\, and the Future of Global Trade
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOne of the great economic challenges across Africa and the Global South has been how to leverage natural resources and human capital toward widespread industrialization\, entrepreneurship\, and job creation. As emerging markets worldwide enter a new era of hyper-industrialization driven by advanced technologies and a focus on sustainability\, countries like Namibia are now positioned to advance key sectors like Energy\, Mining\, and Agriculture higher up the value chain. What is required from investors and international business leaders to reshape global supply chains towards sustainability goals and support the transition to technologies such as batteries and hydrogen? How is the Namibian government creating policy frameworks to encourage foreign investment into these sectors and beyond? And what do investors from the US and across the world need to understand about the potential for the African continent to deliver significant value across emerging sectors of the global economy and help scale these innovations around the world? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by BloombergLive\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nESG News Editorial TeamThe ESG News Editorial Team is comprised of veteran financial journalists and sustainability analysts dedicated to providing real-time\, objective reporting on global ESG regulations\, climate finance\, and corporate governance.

SUMMARY:Greener cities\, cooler planet\, healthier people: unleashing the power of urban nature
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCity life is becoming the default human experience. While being engines for development\, exchange and opportunity\, cities and their expected growth are also exacerbating some of the world’s most serious environmental challenges\, including rising temperatures\, biodiversity loss and land use change. Cities will have to handle increasing climate risks: by 2050\, 1.6 billion city residents will face extreme heat and by 2100\, cities around the world could warm by 4°C on average\, exposing the growing urban population to conditions that will damage human health\, productivity\, and quality of life. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo make peace with nature and beat the rising heat\, we need to design and redesign our urban environments with nature in mind. The good news is that protecting and restoring natural ecosystems can help improve quality of life in cities. Nature-based solutions can provide natural cooling\, better air and water quality\, and healthier communities\, but the benefits and ecosystem services that biodiversity provides need to be better understood and leveraged to increase implementation and bring about change at a local and global level.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis session will focus on the role of nature as an adaptation tool\, and how national and local governments can provide access to cooling while mitigating climate risks and supporting biodiversity. The discussion will enable exchanges between global experts\, countries and cities on the opportunities to catalyze restoration in the framework of urban planning. It will include announcements on cities’ commitments to the Nature for Cool Cities Challenge\, and on global collaboration in the framework of the UN Decade of Ecosystem Restoration. A dedicated exchange will take place on nature financing\, and on the latest efforts to track urban nature investments. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by UNEP\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nESG News Editorial TeamThe ESG News Editorial Team is comprised of veteran financial journalists and sustainability analysts dedicated to providing real-time\, objective reporting on global ESG regulations\, climate finance\, and corporate governance.

SUMMARY:COP15 - Call for Financing Nature for Sustainable Cities and Regions
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCities are on the frontline of managing the direct socio-economic impacts of climate change and ecosystem loss. Today\, 4.4 billion people live in cities\, and 1.4 billion of these people already face high climate risks. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRestoring and protecting nature is fundamental to addressing the impacts of climate change\, bringing multiple benefits not only to ecosystems but also to the health and well-being of urban citizens and the economy. Urban nature-based solutions are both critical and feasible steps that cities can initiate right now to contribute to global biodiversity goals and increase resilience to local environmental risks. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBut to unleash the power of nature in cities\, investments need to grow rapidly. In this press conference\, champion Mayors from around the world will deliver a call for increased financing for nature-based solutions and ecosystem-based approaches in cities and regions\, on behalf of 15 champion cities. A new UNEP project to support them will be announced. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by UNEP\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nESG News Editorial TeamThe ESG News Editorial Team is comprised of veteran financial journalists and sustainability analysts dedicated to providing real-time\, objective reporting on global ESG regulations\, climate finance\, and corporate governance.

SUMMARY:The 6th Sustainability Summit for south-east Europe and the Mediterranean
DESCRIPTION:Redefining sustainability in an unsustainable world\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the wake of the covid-19 pandemic and the Russian invasion in Ukraine\, the need to redefine the concept of sustainability on a global basis has arisen. New big challenges emerge\, such as disruption in the energy sector\, the threat of a food crisis\, new refugee flows\, restructuring of public health systems\, changes in the workplace and labour relations. The already existing crucial issues of sustainability\, such as climate crisis and biodiversity loss\, poverty and inequalities\, transformation of cities\, are thus being addressed within a new context. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAgainst this background\, the discussion on sustainability becomes of great importance. Many new –and old– questions require answers and\, most important\, demand effective and inclusive action: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow will the SDGs work after pandemic and the war in Ukraine?\n\n\n\nIs there a link between biodiversity loss and the pandemics?\n\n\n\nEU’s and European governments’ reaction to the refugee crisis\n\n\n\nWhat changes are needed in terms of production\, trade and food consumption?\n\n\n\nIs there risk of a decarbonisation reversal?\n\n\n\nIs nuclear energy a solution to the explosion of energy prices?\n\n\n\nAre inequalities being sharpened in the post-pandemic working environment?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAgainst this background\, the discussion on sustainability becomes of great importance. Many new –and old– questions require answers and\, most important\, demand effective and inclusive action: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWithin this context\, The Economist Impact Events in partnership with SDSN Europe\, SDSN Greece and EIT Climate- KIC Hub Greece have great pleasure in announcing the organisation of the Sixth Economist Sustainability Summit for South-East Europe and the Mediterranean scheduled to take place on November 30th & December 1st\, 2022 at the Divani Apollon Palace & Thalasso in Kavouri. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by Economist_SEUR\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nESG News Editorial TeamThe ESG News Editorial Team is comprised of veteran financial journalists and sustainability analysts dedicated to providing real-time\, objective reporting on global ESG regulations\, climate finance\, and corporate governance.

At the same time\, the global conversation on the ocean typically happens elsewhere. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEntering its second year\, the summit will cover the length and breadth of the sustainable ocean economy with sessions on governance\, climate change\, finance\, supply chains\, innovation and technology\, shipping\, tourism\, fishing and aquaculture. A key theme for the summit will be marine pollution and addressing the problems of plastics and chemicals in the ocean. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis two-day programme will take place at the Resorts World Convention Centre in Singapore in-person. Up to 12 sessions over the course of the summit will be live-streamed to a wider audience virtually.

SUMMARY:Packaging Targets: Set and Meet Them with Plastic IQ
DESCRIPTION:Companies across the United States have publicly announced ambitious sustainable plastic packaging targets to accomplish by 2030 or sooner\, but many lack the proper resources and time to understand exactly how to get there. Simultaneously\, plastic pollution leakage into the environment is a key topic across multiple sectors\, including the waste industry. What will it take to reduce plastic packaging waste in the U.S.\, and how can brands and retailers positively influence the outcomes? Without sustainable packaging strategies to manage broad portfolios\, it is difficult to weigh decisions that will result in the best environmental and economic outcomes. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin The Recycling Partnership and esteemed panelists from Walmart\, WWF\, and Blue Apron to hear why more than 200 U.S. companies are using Plastic IQ\, a free\, customizable tool to make informed circular packaging decisions across their plastics portfolios.
