What should Boards be doing, today, to ensure climate change focus, energy transition, carbon net zero? This is a particularly difficult question to ask when it’s not obvious to them what they can do to make a difference. Boards in financial services have been tasked by the regulator to address “ESG” – and there is a lot of confusion about how it might apply to them. The same goes for many industries that are not energy, mining or other high carbon producers.
Join Sharon Constançon and her guests, Andrew Skipper, Head of Africa Practice, Hogan Lovells, and John Wade-Smith, Head of Climate Change and Energy, British High Commission, South Africa, for some ‘real-talk’ on the practical implementation of ESG principles and practices in the modern Board.
