Despite stiff competition from Brexit, LIBOR transition and COVID-19, climate change remains a topic never far away from the news headlines. There is a common acceptance that whilst significant steps forward have been taken in recent years to mitigate the speed and extent of climate change, efforts in this regard need to be significantly accelerated. This is an issue which affects everybody and every industry and there is a very clear need for a unified and cooperative approach in order to address the problem.
