Decarbonisation is possible and profitable. At Davos, Dr Forrest convened global economic leaders to identify practical pathways toward rapid decarbonisation. Eliminating emissions is smart business, and the right pathway for stronger national economic growth. Dr Forrest was joined by leaders including Vice President Al Gore, Karen Fang, Secretary John Kerry, Tzeporah Berman, Jaime de Bourbon de Parme and Laurence Tubiana.

Considering the plant life on this planet requires all forms of carbon to grow and produce oxygen for us to survive, it seems stupid to decarbonize. I'm not a smart man but I don't believe we have out produced carbon to the detriment of All things requiring it. In fact the trees for instance have bigger growth because of it. Mother nature will consume it all with leisure. Has the %of oxygen changed in the last 50 years?

Dr Forrest is a bright shining example of leadership. I wish more leaders like Dr Forrest would take this as an example and put their money and business to good use and help combat climate change instead of turning the clock back decades like Elon Musk and other US super rich supporting Trump. Congratulations Fortescue for being a great example of God corporate value and action.

    I'm not sick of talking about #Climate change. In fact, I talk about climate change at some point in every day: with clients to find appropriate board clients, with candidates who are passionate about the topic and at events where we try to share knowledge. Plus, at Norman Broadbent Plc we talk about it regularly in the team. It may seem small to redouble our recycling efforts, turn off lights and cut down on printing materials, but small things add up to make an impact.   Climate action. It’s not just a moral argument. It’s a business one too.     Have you seen Chapter Zero’s latest adverts in the Financial Times? View the series so far at: https://bit.ly/3ZoZf9f   #ClimateAction #ItsABusinessArgumentToo

    It’s not enough to just speak of climate change – now is the time for inspiration, innovation, creativity and transformation to bring about change. It’s not just a moral argument. It’s a business one too.     This week’s Financial Times ad created by Mother says non-executive directors and chairs should up the ante, shift the dial and do things better. And Chapter Zero Fellow, Nigel Topping, CMG tells courageous boards to recognise and prepare for economic transformation. He says companies must transform because they are part of the wider economic transformation that is affecting global business. Whole markets are transforming. It started with energy, now it's transport, but most sectors are affected. Economic transformation calls for a different type of leadership, and it requires courage to allocate resources in a way that’s appropriate for transformation. Boards of companies in all sectors must think exponentially. We have the solutions – extraordinary transformations are already happening faster than we think. We are building more than we need for net zero and courage will become the common currency for bringing about further change.     You can read the full article here: https://bit.ly/4djs36j #ClimateAction #ItsABusinessArgumentToo

    Shaping the Future: Future-Thinking, Strategy and Transformative Innovation!

    Horizon Scan: Acceleration in Society! 1. Complexity An accelerating pace of change, increasing complexity and interconnectedness, and an imminent polycrisis have stirred a natural tendency for short-term thinking among decision-makers - to preserve existing institutions and power structures. 2. Futures However, we need to proactively create the means to cope with emerging challenges, and spend resources on crafting the future we want. 3. Foresight UN Secretary-General António Guterres has cited a need to “improve our strategic foresight and risk analysis,” because foresight is crucial for increasing our collective capacity to address transformational challenges 4. Collaboration it promotes collaboration on long-term goals and synergies, rather than the here and now. 5. Holistic Thinking It also encourages holistic thinking, and recognizes that decisions made today cast long shadows into the future. Check out the Transformation Map curated by World Economic Forum and presenting the insights of Lasse Jonasson at Copenhagen Institute for Futures Studies here: https://lnkd.in/dK-j9pBV #innovation ##foresight #strategy #futures #polycrisis #complexity

    We couldn't agree more - transformation within markets is needed to respond to climate change. And speaking of climate change… Here at the SSE, we promote transparency and encourage stock exchanges to support climate-friendly investments by enhancing sustainability reporting and integrating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors. We collaborate with exchanges globally to help foster green finance and guide listed companies towards reducing their carbon footprints, aligning with climate action goals. Climate action.
