The political and economic reality of climate action is fast evolving, and new challenges are arising from many directions. We have witnessed bold and strong leadership from business, government and communities in keeping climate top of the agenda, establishing new frontiers in policy to strengthen investment in green manufacturing, and promote positive communication and resilience in the face of backlash.
