REMARKABLE Climate Leaders’ Post

If you have a low footprint naturally – congratulations, you’re likely already a lean, efficient organisation. 🙌 Those leaders with a head start should be looking at how they can keep that head start. As climate action becomes more common and others also lower their footprints, strong climate leadership will help any company remain competitive, viable and relevant. Often it’s helpful to illustrate the additional savings possible, opportunities for innovation or market advantage, and risk resilience of taking climate action. And depending on your sector, there may also be advantages to quantifying how your lower footprint can help others reduce theirs. After all, climate change mitigation and adaptation is a collective effort and we’ll only win this race when the last of us crosses the finish line. #AskToitū #CarbonFootprint #decarbonisation #ClimateAction

As Co-chair of the Alliance of CEO Climate Leaders—a flagship initiative of the World Economic Forum—I am delighted to join Ester Baiget, Jesper Brodin, Feike Sijbesma, and Rich Lesser, along with a cohort of 130-member CEOs across 12 industries, in driving the strategic priorities of the Alliance.   The private sector has a critical role to play in accelerating the clean energy transition by tackling the challenges of Scope 3 emissions decarbonisation, and driving the policy narrative for a low-carbon regulatory environment. As a member of the Alliance since 2019, ReNew is among the few organisations to have declared a 1.5°C-aligned target validated by the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi), with an aim to be net zero by 2040.   I look forward to engaging with the talented group of global leaders and CEOs committed to delivering tangible climate solutions and innovations across geographies and businesses.

🌍 Climate Action Demands Leadership: A Message for Global Commitment In our fight against climate change, the commitment of developed nations isn’t just desirable—it’s essential. With the U.S. now under new leadership come next year, there is hope that the President-elect will prioritize climate action, surrounded by secretaries and advisors who understand the urgency and global impact of their decisions. As one of the world’s most influential nations, the U.S. has the power to set ambitious standards, champion sustainable policies, and inspire others to join in real, measurable change. Every policy, every investment, and every act of leadership matters. Let’s continue to push for a future where words turn into action and ambitions into sustainable impact. 🌱 The world is watching. Together, let’s make sure we are heard. #ClimateLeadership #SustainableFuture #GlobalAction #ClimateCommitment #USLeadership

Last weekend was an eye-opening, energising and inspiring one. I completed the The Climate Reality Project Leadership Training in Rome with former US Vice-President Al Gore and his team. Three days of science, politics and innovation focused skills-building for those looking to be a #climateleader in their community, company or country. I'll be writing more about this in coming weeks, so please follow me here and on Medium - https://lnkd.in/dvA4xUES My main takeaways were: 1 - We already have all the technology we need to reduce emissions by 50%, it's just a matter of being laser-focused on the implementation 2 - Stopping new fossil fuel funding and calling out greenwashing are the biggest things we can do to get us back on track 3 - If you ever feel like you're the only one who cares, you're not. There are thousands of us all around the world that are ready to lead change and make real impact.
