It is clear that climate change is an all encompassing challenge, impacting all spheres of life and every region of the world. Even with the commitments made at COP26 to phase down coal, cut methane emissions and halt deforestation, some reports suggest the world is still on track for 2.4C of warming by 2030. Unless governments, businesses and investors instigate rapid, sustained and large-scale reductions of greenhouse gas emissions, the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5C will very soon be beyond reach.
