The top global risks in the next decade – from extreme weather events to natural-resource shortages – are environmental. Yet transiting to net-zero, nature-positive businesses may negatively impact profits in the short term. This session explores the role of chief sustainability leaders in addressing the nexus between business growth and competitiveness, jobs and capabilities and responsible environment stewardship. Earth Decides members are invited to join the Centre for Nature and Climate’s community of Chief Sustainability Leaders to share their unique perspectives in this conversation.
