7 Years to Save the Planet (TEDxBoston - Planetary Stewardship)

Ceres CEO and President, Mindy Lubber, recently delivered a TEDxBoston Talk at the New England Aquarium.

Financing a Net Zero Economy Recordings Now Available On Demand
Recordings are now available on sessions from “Financing a Net Zero Economy,” the one-day event last September in New York City focused on bank leaders, bank investors and civil society establishing climate transition plans. Register for free to access the recordings.
Highlighted Session: "Discussion on Implementation of Bank Net Zero Commitments and Best" Practices:
Many large banks have made net zero commitments and are increasingly backing them up with sector-specific 2030 targets. In this session, panelists from Moody’s, Bank of America, and ERM discussed how different stakeholders can support banks in achieving these targets and how much work remains in terms of data collection, quantitative analysis, scenario planning, and overall strategy implementation. The panelists also discussed how the target-setting process could vary for other sectors, asset classes, or types of banks and how the process is evolving for Bank of America. |
Inclusive Insurance: A U.S. Roadmap for Climate-Related Disasters
February 22, 2023, 1pm ET
Online
Insurance is one important tool for financial protection from the economic shocks of disasters. However, many people most in need of economic resources for recovery face a disaster insurance system that is inaccessible, unaffordable, and not designed for their needs. A new report by Ceres offers a roadmap for how local, state, and federal regulators and policymakers can improve the disaster insurance system to make it more inclusive. In this webinar, we will hear from public and private sector experts about the state of disaster recovery in the U.S. and the role insurance plays in financial protection. Participants will also discuss where our current insurance system falls short in
protecting those households most harmed by climate-driven disasters, and explore the opportunities for change within our current regulatory, legal, and market structures. |
