Open Navigation Menu COP26 COP26 takes place during a pivotal moment in the fight against climate change. EY can help reframe the outcomes into business action and impact. Join the conversation #ReframeTheFuture #COP26 twitter Featured thinking If climate change is everybody’s business, how can all benefit from green leadership by the few? Steve Varley, Steven Lewis 29 Oct 2021 The UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP26) is a chance to act to avert the worst impacts of climate change. But according to the UN’s own estimates, global temperatures look set to rise by 2.7°C above pre-industrial levels – significantly higher than the 2°C agreed at COP21 in Paris. Business and government must work together to reverse climate change. Through global experience, expertise and convening power, EY helps build, implement and report on global, enterprise-wide strategies that address the climate emergency. EY has already set itself an ambition to become carbon negative in 2021 and net zero in 2025, and is actively helping others with their own decarbonization journeys. It is also investing in sustainability services, solutions and people, and advising governments and regulators around the world on ESG standards and the transition to a green future. By collaborating around COP26 we will find the better answers that will be key to accelerating the transition to a low-carbon global economy and unlocking long-term value around the world. EY can help translate decisions made in Glasgow into business action and impact. By working together, we can all build a better, more sustainable working world.
