Jupiter's Rich Sorkin speaks with The Economist for their special report on the climate risks businesses face. Watch it here.
Climate change is about to upend the corporate world through weather-related disasters, regulation and lawsuits. Can businesses react and adapt in time? In a follow-up video to their special report, The Great Disrupter, The Economist turns to Jupiter CEO Rich Sorkin for insights on the evolving climate risk management and regulatory hurdles for businesses.
The full, seven-part report offers insights around why businesses should care about the growing impacts and regulation of climate risks, and discusses the opportunities to prepare for the changing world.
The time to act on climate change is now. As Mr. Sorkin says, “In ten years there won’t be a large entity anywhere on the planet that does not have a handle on its climate risk. Consumers, shareholders and employees won’t stand for it.”
