Covid has given us the opportunity to hit pause and think more about sustainability while standing still, confirming that we need to accelerate our response to climate change. A global reset has enabled us to observe how a reduction in carbon emissions has impacted our planet. Data collected during Covid has provided unparalleled intelligence that could previously only be predicted by data analysis and modeling.
Join us for this solutions session on the importance of data in a post-Covid world. We’ll discuss how the currency of data enables business and industry to innovate, develop and be more sustainable and how this moment of reflection has provided an opportunity for scientific evidence to inform more sustainable practices.

“Take, make, use, dispose,” is the traditional model our global economy has operated by for generations. Due to the buildup of waste and the growing challenges posed by climate change, companies and communities around the world are trying to make the transition to a circular economy model, which aims to minimize the use of resources and the production of waste. But implementing this circular model requires rethinking how we produce products and changing consumer behavior.
Join us for a solutions session featuring the world’s leading oceans, plastics and circular economy experts discussing what is needed to transition to a circular economy. What are the greatest challenges and obstacles, what could help facilitate a more rapid transition and what are the opportunities for the future?

Climate change poses important new risks and opportunities for business and finance leaders. Many have embraced climate action as an opportunity, providing innovative corporate and finance solutions that are creating a positive impact on both their business and the planet. How products are manufactured, packaged, marketed and distributed, and the degree to which investors put money to work in companies who embraced climate positive practices across the entire life cycle, is one of the most viable ways to move the needle in the right direction. We’ll talk to top names in business, markets, and finance about how and why they’re making the investment in climate action.

In addition to helping stabilize the climate, forests regulate ecosystems, protect biodiversity, play an integral part in the carbon cycle, support livelihoods, and can help drive sustainable growth. To maximize the climate benefits of forests, we must keep more forest landscapes intact, manage them more sustainably, and restore more of those landscapes which we have lost. Halting the loss and degradation of natural systems and promoting their restoration have the potential to contribute over one-third of the total climate change mitigation scientists say is required by 2030.
In this solutions session, we’ll talk with some of the world’s leading forest conservation experts about efforts underway to protect this vital natural resource; what the biggest threats are in terms of future degradation; and what action businesses leaders, and individuals, can take to help in the fight for forest preservation.

Greta Thunberg may be the poster child for a global student movement vocal on climate change, but she exemplifies the passion Generation Z shows when it comes to climate and social issues. For Generations X and Y, the hot job ticket shifted from investment banking in the 1990s to wannabe dot com millionaires in the early 2000s, when every conceivable idea went to IPO.
Today, the younger generation wants to marry mission and money and doesn’t see them as mutually exclusive. Social and environmental issues are a huge driver for them, and businesses have realised that to attract this new generation of employees they will have to focus on becoming more ethical and sustainable.
In this solutions session, we’ll examine what green jobs look like for the new generation of leaders. Will companies that lack green credentials struggle to hire top talent? What is the future of the green job market? And how can you identify the right green job for you?

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has proven that “scientific evidence for warming of the climate system is unequivocal.” Responsible, collective decision making can only be made when there is an agreed upon set of facts upon which to base assumptions about the future, and it is imperative that verified scientific voices be elevated and reported accurately. We’ll engage top scientists working at the edge of change to get their inputs on what can still be done to mitigate the worst of climate change effects.

According to C40, cities consume over two-thirds of the world’s energy and account for more than 70% of global CO2 emissions. However, this presents an opportunity for cities to play an integral role in combating climate change. With more than half of the world’s population living in cities, urban centers are well-positioned to play a leadership role in driving global action.
Join us for this solutions session, where we’ll examine if it’s possible to create a carbon neutral city. What are the opportunities, the challenges, and the potential path to carbon neutrality? We’ll also speak with top Mayors from around the world about the solutions they’re implementing now to become carbon neutral.
