This book provides a comprehensive treatment of the role of the
private sector in accelerating the transition to a low-carbon,
climate-resilient, and inclusive world. In the lead up to and since
the historic Paris Agreement on climate change, more than 6,000
companies from 120 countries representing more than $36.5 trillion
in revenue have made climate commitments. Examining this trend, The
New Corporate Climate Leadership provides a clear synthesis of the
relationship between the real economy and climate change and offers
a state-of-the-art assessment of corporate initiatives that focus
on greenhouse gas emissions reductions and the management of
climate risk through enhanced resilience. It debates the relative
merits of incremental and sequenced ambition versus radical systems
change - including a critique of the prevailing capitalist approach
to climate change - and provides an actionable guide to skills
development for change-makers in the shift toward a low-carbon
world. Drawing on perspectives from leading thinkers inside the
private sector, across government, and within civil society to
truly interrogate the scale, scope, and speed of progress, this
book provides a clear vision for what the next generation of
corporate climate leadership should look like. Optimistic in tone,
this book will be of great interest to students, scholars, and
practitioners of climate change and sustainable business.
