From Ideas to Action: Governance Paths to Net Zero

Autor Janis Sarra
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 noi 2020
This book offers a guide, for companies, pension funds, asset managers, and other institutional investors, on how to commence the legal, governance, and financial strategies needed for effective climate mitigation and adaptation, and to help distribute the economic benefits of these actions to their stakeholders. It takes the reader from ideas to action, from first steps to a more meaningful contribution to the move towards a net zero carbon world. It can serve as a helpful guide to everyone implicated in a corporation's activities - employees, pensioners, consumers, banks and other lenders, policymakers, and community members. It offers insights into what we should be expecting, and asking, of these fiduciaries who have taken responsibility for effectively managing our savings, our retirement funds, our investments, and our tax dollars.

Recenzii

[F]inancial markets have a key role to play in financing the transition to net zero and adaptation to a changing climate. Janis Sarra's book is a timely contribution that shows how those investments can speed the transition to net zero and reduce financial risks for companies and investors. Dr. Sarra takes existing laws regarding corporate and financial governance and shows how they do not just support, but actually require corporate executives, pension fund managers, and investors to carefully consider the impact of climate risk on their way of doing business.
