Accelerating our Journey towards a Green Economy, before its Too Late

Accelerating our Journey towards a Green Economy, before its Too Late organized by The Transparency Task Force

Online

This event is inspired by the concerns expressed so well by Sir David Attenborough’s comments at the UN climate change conference, when he stated: “Right now, we are facing a man-made disaster of global scale, our greatest threat in thousands of years: climate change. If we don’t take action, the collapse of our civilizations and the extinction of much of the natural world is on the horizon.” The stakes really couldn’t be any higher and many people within the Transparency Task Force community are convinced the financial services sector as a whole could and should be doing much more than it is to tackle climate change. Of course, we are exposed to many grave challenges in the world right now. We are having to face up to serious political, social and economic challenges; none of them have easy solutions; and on top of that there is Covid-19. However, in the overall scheme of things, nothing; absolutely nothing is nearly as important as taking care of our planet. Everything we have, everything we are and everything we might one day become is dependent on the wellbeing of a planet we are all fortunate enough to live on; a planet we are collectively harming; minute by minute. According to many experts, we are getting perilously close to the point of no return; i.e. the point at which we become fated to harming our world so much that its wellbeing (and therefore ours) is irreconcilably jeopardised. Any serious analysis of global warming results in one stark conclusion: unless mankind makes drastic changes to first halt and then reverse our awful impact on our precious planet, we are destined to climate catastrophe. So, in plain and blunt English: unless there is a massive and authentic commitment to drastic change, we’re most probably going to wreck the one thing we simply must not take for granted; our world.
