The new climate reality: responding to complex and connected crises
Wed, 21st Sep 2022
10:00 AM - 11:30 AM ET
Our world is connected, complex and changing. The impacts of climate change are compounding existing and growing global crises; from energy and supply chain pressures, to food and economic inequalities. And these crises are impacting progress on climate too. Ahead of COP27, what should be the international response to the multiple interlinked crises we are now experiencing?
Climate in the geopolitical context of today
Speakers: Helen Clarkson, Chief Executive Officer, Climate Group ; Dr. Petteri Taalas, Secretary-General of the World Meteorological Organization ; and more
Climate, energy, food and global security are more connected than ever. Events this year have exposed the fragility of our systems and the risks posed by our short-term decision-making when faced with competing and connected global challenges. How we tackle these challenges together is one of the biggest questions of our time.

The cold truths for a warming world: what’s stopping us from ‘Getting It Done’?
Speakers: Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala - Director-General, World Trade Organization ; Zain Asher, CNN Anchor and Opening Ceremony host ; and more
We have the tech, tools and cash. So why is the gap between what people say and what they do getting wider? How is progress on halving emissions being slowed down? What, and who, is stopping us from ‘Getting It Done’? Commitments won’t deliver themselves. We must follow through on promises and we need to show the world how.

Speakers: President Macky Sall, President of Senegal and Chair of the African Union ; Werner Hoyer, President, European Investment Bank ; and more
We need to put people at the heart of our climate transition. We need real, serious plans and action. Political policies must promote prosperity for all people. Business strategies must support all of society. The rewards of investing in people, equity and justice are clear.

Getting It Done: being accountable
Speakers: Angela Barranco - Executive Director for North America at the Climate Group; Mark Campanale - Founder & Executive Chairman at Carbon Tracker; and more
Committing to climate action means nothing without accountability. We all need to hold ourselves answerable to the promises we’ve made. And we all play a part in holding others to their commitments – especially those who aren’t committing at all. With climate strategies and actions being scrutinized more than ever, being accountable must become as important as commitments themselves.
