Climate Capital Live
Accelerating Action to Achieve Net-Zero
As we move beyond the pandemic, it is clear that climate change is the most pertinent and existential crisis facing the world. As the latest IPCC report highlighted it is an all encompassing challenge, impacting all spheres of life and every region of the world. Even with the commitments made at COP26 to phase down coal, cut methane emissions and halt deforestation, some reports suggest the world is still on track for 2.4C of warming by 2030.
It is now clear, more than ever, that unless governments, businesses and investors instigate rapid, sustained and large-scale reductions of greenhouse gas emissions, the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5C will very soon be beyond reach.
FT Climate Capital Live 2022 is a platform for politicians, business leaders and financiers to evaluate the risks and opportunities they face in light of the climate crisis. Providing actionable insights on how regulatory changes, business strategies and innovative financing structures are moving the world forward to achieve net-zero goals and rapidly reduce GHG emissions through action rather than talk. Building on the success of the 2021 event, FT Climate Capital Live is growing to reflect the scale of the climate challenge. Speakers and attendees will be able to join in person in London or virtually online.

Key themes will include
8th March
Sessions hosted in person and virtually
Decarbonising Our World
Sessions will include a regional spotlight on whether the EU carbon border tax should be extended to be made a global one, evaluate the impacts of the energy transition, as well as host a debate on whether carbon offsetting is a solution or a con?
Gender & Climate Change
It is widely accepted that climate change disproportionately disadvantages women and girls. On International Women’s Day we are hosting a session that considers strategies on how to mitigate the impacts of climate change on women, as well as how to put women at the centre of strategy and implementation of climate projects.
9th March
Sessions hosted in person and virtually
Using Capital to Protect Our Climate
As the investment community raises trillions of dollars to combat climate change we will evaluate what is the best use of that capital, how do you measure its impact and can you protect the public from bearing the cost of the transition to net zero?
Global Food Systems & Nature Based Solutions
With almost a quarter of global GHG emissions from agriculture and land misuse it is clear that the opportunity nature based solutions pose has to be ceased. Sessions will consider how we can rapidly improve biodiversity, modernise global food systems and reduce agricultural waste. The future of global food systems will debate whether fake meat is the future?
10th March
All sessions hosted virtually
Standardising & Benchmarking Targets
Climate related disclosures have become a critical element in businesses day to day; but what they should consist of, what level of detail they should provide and how they should be standardised are still a points of confusion and debate.
Supporting the Global South’s Adaptation Progress
Following a year of even more devastating climate events it is critical to evaluate what emerging nations are doing to adapt to climate change and what support is needed to protect communities from future climate related disasters.
