Event: Managing Climate Change Risks
The P2 Project, jointly with Mercer Investment Consultants, held successful events in Montreal and Winnipeg looking at the implications of climate change for investment decision-making. The events featured leading Canadian climate scientists who provided overviews of the latest climate science and the emerging risks and impacts of climate change for investors. Following, Mercer provided the workshop participants with some tools to use to minimize the investment risks from climate change.
