John, 

It’s been a busy few months. This summer we were focused on the fight to ensure climate investments were included in the Inflation Reduction Act, then it was off to Climate Week and the UN General Assembly session in NYC to meet with world and business leaders, and now we are setting our agenda for COP27 in Egypt.  

The Sharm El-Sheikh United Nations Climate Change Conference starts in early November, and we have a lot to accomplish! 

Our COP27 priorities are clear: 

• Build on the success of the passage of the IRA to position the United States as retaking global leadership on the climate crisis action, and push for more governments to take meaningful actions 

• Bring the voices of over 500 institutional investors (and growing), representing over $39 trillion in assets to push governments to work toward the Paris Climate Accord goals for emission reductions 

• Host events and be a leading presence at the We Mean Business Coalition pavilion, including how to align the individual corporate investments of the S&P top 100 toward transitioning to sustainable practices and the lobbying of corporate trade groups 

• Build support for climate justice and equity by supporting climate financing for historically marginalized communities and emerging markets  

John, we know that you want to be a part of the solution. Here are a few things you can do to keep the momentum going:

Together, we can make the case that transforming our economy benefits people and the planet today, and for generations to come. Companies and investors must work with global leaders—it’s the only way to build a just and sustainable world. We’re bringing that message to COP27 and, we need you by our side!
