The record-breaking wildfires and hurricanes of 2020 may not stand out as the worst catastrophes in a year defined by compounding crises.

Scientific evidence tells us these trends will only worsen as global temperatures rise, taking a toll on human life, infrastructure, economic activity and financial stability especially if risks continue to go underpriced. By 2100, climate change could cost the global economy hundreds of trillions of dollars.

Investors are armed with a new metric for measuring a company s progress on climate change and a more collaborative approach for holding corporate directors and senior management directly responsible through proxy voting. And they are getting critical backup from regulators like the Securities and Exchange Commission, where climate risk is starting to feature prominently in both corporate reporting and enforcement priorities.
