The UK-based investments firm discusses the approach it takes to reaching Net Zero and the timetable it adopts.
In this video, entitled Geopolitics and Climate Finance: Can
Capitalists Save The World?, Aviva Investors chief executive
Mark Versey talks about why the issues are so important for
investors, and what the firm’s approach is to achieving Net Zero
on carbon emissions.
Running for just under three minutes, Versey talks about how
climate change is the “single biggest systemic risk of our time”
and that because global warming, and its impact, is global, it
cannot be hedged against. For that reason, the process of climate
change – at least that caused by humans – needs to be stopped, he
says.
This news service has run a number of articles involving Aviva
Investors (see
an example here) and, of course, this particular video
coincides with the COP26 programme of events under way in
Glasgow.
