Business Risks and Opportunities of Global Warming

Slide Content

The slide contrasts the risks and opportunities that global warming presents for businesses. The risks include assets worth $4tn at risk from climate change by 2030, potentially up to 6% of GDP losses by 2050 showing impacts such as fierce competition for resources, limited business growth in areas prone to supply chain disruptions, and loss of company value and stakeholder confidence. Opportunities highlight the ability of businesses to drive change, a $5.5tn estimated global market for low-carbon goods, the capacity of companies to invest in improving their bottom line, and the expectations of investors and customers for companies to adapt.

• A vertical gray divider separates the two sections.
