Overview
Understand the economy of climate action, focusing on the cost of inaction, financial risk, and the economic case for acting now.
This one-hour interactive webinar explores the economy of climate action, with a focus on the real costs of inaction. Designed for busy professionals, it combines clear insights with practical discussion to help you understand financial risk, long-term impacts, and why acting early makes economic sense.
Participants will explore the economic dimensions of climate change and the cost of inaction across environmental, social and financial systems. The webinar highlights how climate impacts translate into real economic risks for organisations and communities, and why early, planned action is more cost-effective than delay. Key topics include the financial implications of climate risk, long-term decision-making, and how climate action supports resilient and sustainable economies. The session also introduces practical ways organisations can begin embedding climate considerations into strategies, policies and investment decisions.
A concise 1-hour introduction covering the essentials, ideal if you are short on time or want to raise awareness across teams and departments.
By the end of the course, participants will:
Understand the economic impacts of climate change and the cost of inaction at global and local level.
Recognise climate change as a financial and organisational risk, not just an environmental issue.
Explore how early climate action can reduce long-term costs and support resilient decision-making.
