QUOTE OF THE DAY

“What makes me most hopeful [about achieving a 1.5° pathway] is the private sector. We have more than 3,000 corporates globally that have science-based decarbonization targets and plans, and we have a huge volume of financing that is seeking some form of ESG or sustainability investment focus. Society is also becoming more aware.”

—Helge Muenkel, chief sustainability officer of DBS Bank, in “One way to help solve net-zero challenges: Working together as an ecosystem”
