Pim Valdre: The future is going to be set by the transition decisions we make today

Source: World Economic Forum (video statements)

We’re on track for 3°C warming – and business leaders say it’s time to act.

‘We don’t yet know the full impact of a world that hot, but we do know it’s urgent to prepare,’ says Pim Valdre, Head of Climate and Nature Economy at the @WorldEconomicForum.

That’s why 130+ major companies with $4 trillion in combined revenues have joined forces through the #AllianceOfCEOClimateLeaders, to urge policy-makers to act.

Their message is clear:
Business is already cutting #emissions at scale.
Now we need policies that unlock green markets, speed the transition and build a #NaturePositive, low-emissions economy.
The choices made today will define the pace of #climate action for decades to come.

As the world looks to #COP30, momentum is building for collective action on climate change. The World Economic Forum and its partners are helping scale what already works – from innovative finance models and policy frameworks to business-led solutions that deliver sustainable prosperity. By investing in nature as core economic infrastructure, we can unlock opportunity for #PeoplePlanetProgress.

From green steel to hydrogen, the technology is ready – the question is how fast we can scale it.

‘This is one of the biggest business opportunities of our time,’ says Dan Ioschpe, CEO of Iochpe-Maxion and member of the #AllianceOfCEOClimateLeaders. ‘Governments bring regulation and direction, academia brings knowledge, but the business sector is in a position to implement.’

Representing 130+ major companies with $4 trillion in combined revenues, the Alliance is urging policy-makers to act on climate change. As a signatory of their open letter to #COP30, Ioschpe calls for cross-sector collaboration to turn proven technologies into global solutions.

What’s Next for Humanitarianism & Ocean Acidity Crosses Safe Limit | WEF | Top Stories of the Week

00:00:14:20 – This lawyer is making Pakistan’s legal system fairer for women: Lawyer Khushbakht Shah Jillani stands up for women’s rights in Pakistan’s courts – and two years ago, she persuaded the high court to redefine a 136-year-old law to give working mothers more rights.

00:02:46:21- Uruguay switched its grid to clean power in just 20 years: In 2008, Uruguay was heavily reliant on fossil fuel imports and – as the global price of oil rose – struggling to meet the energy demands of its burgeoning middle class. Today, it’s a global leader in #renewables, meeting 98% of its electricity needs from renewable sources. So how did it achieve such a staggering transformation?

00:04:53:10 – What’s next for humanitarianism in our fragmented world: Global humanitarian aid has fallen sharply, as major donors such as the US and the EU slash their #aid budgets and private funders tighten the purse-strings. This means that, for dozens of crises around the world, up to a third of funding has abruptly vanished – while the number of people in need has risen by 70 million since 2021.

00:09:59:00 – Ocean acidity has just crossed a critical threshold for marine life: The increasing acidification of the ocean – a process driven by the burning of fossil fuels – has crossed its safe limit for the first time ever, putting all marine life and ecosystems at risk.

ReNew CEO: Climate adaptation is really a question of global good versus individual cost

Source: World Economic Forum (video statements)

‘Three-quarters of carbon emissions come from outside the electricity sector – in steel, cement, shipping and aviation. These are the hard-to-abate industries where we urgently need breakthroughs.’

Sumant Sinha, @ReNewCorp CEO and member of the #AllianceOfCEOClimateLeaders, explains why government support is key to scaling industry solutions and unlocking capital for deep decarbonization.

Representing 130+ major companies with $4 trillion in combined revenues, the Alliance is urging policy-makers to act on climate change. In their open letter to #COP30, the CEOs are calling on governments to create the right enabling environment for businesses to accelerate the shift toward a low-emissions, #NaturePositive economy.

As the world looks to #COP30, momentum is building for collective action on climate change. The World Economic Forum and its partners are helping scale what already works – from innovative finance models to business-led solutions that deliver sustainable prosperity, for #PeoplePlanetProgress.
