BACKGROUND

As organisations deepen their understanding of greenhouse gas emissions and climate change impacts, the next challenge is turning that knowledge into practical action. This webinar explores how to identify, assess, and manage both transitional and physical climate risks in the face of policy, regulatory, and modelling uncertainty. It will highlight how integrating climate risks into site-based risk registers can strengthen decision-making, support decarbonisation and adaptation, and help organisations respond with greater confidence and resilience.
