Ratification of Paris Climate Agreement: Driving Strong Growth of Environmental Markets
The Paris Climate Agreement will be ratified on 4 November. Under this agreement nation states have committed to act jointly to limit average global temperate increase to “well below” two degrees Centigrade relative to pre-industrial levels.
As a consequence, measures to support the continued strong growth of environmental markets are set to strengthen significantly, providing increasing compelling opportunities for investors.
Lisa Beauvilain, Head of Sustainability & ESG at Impax, discusses progress to date and the challenges to be worked through as we approach COP22 in Marrakesh.
