The risks of climate change

Climate change & energy transition is one of our four focus themes within responsible investing. Climate change poses significant risks to the global economy, ecosystems and society, primarily from human activities that emit greenhouse gases (GHGs) into the atmosphere, such as the burning of fossil fuels. Rising temperatures contribute to more extreme weather events, rising sea levels and disruptions to ecosystems. Meeting the goals of the Paris Agreement - limiting global warming to well below 2°C and pursuing efforts to limit it to 1.5°C - requires urgent and significant reductions in GHG emissions.
