SESSIONS

Day 2: 1 Nov, 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM GMT +0   (1 hour)
How big business is driving the sustainable revolution

Just 100 global fossil fuel producers are responsible for 71 per cent of the
world’s greenhouse gas emissions over the past three decades. Ensuring accurate,
timely and effective monitoring and disclosure of these emissions will be
central to forging a green economy in the 21st century. With the support of
government and society, what role can higher education play in holding these
companies accountable and driving down emissions?

This panel will review innovative ways in which more than 1,000 businesses, with
the support of their communities and driven by research and innovation from
higher education and incentives from government, have collectively set some
US$23 trillion worth of emissions-reduction goals that line up with the Paris
Agreement.
