In this course, you will focus on understanding climate change and the risks and opportunities that it creates for businesses in the 21st century. You will analyze the current impacts of climate change on a global scale, and the investment shifts that are required to achieve a net-zero economy. Next, you will analyze the role of climate disclosures and their importance in ESG. You will also review private environmental governance, the active role that private companies are playing in combating climate change, and the parallels between the public and private sectors. Additionally, you will assess the insurance industry and the ways that it spreads risk, as well as creative ways that insurance as a form of private or public governance can build climate resilience. In the final module, you will review the concept of greenwashing: what is driving firms to make exaggerated environmental claims, why it is harmful, and examples of enforcement actions. Finally, you will learn about the importance of product stewardship. By the end of this course, you will have a thorough understanding of public and private environmental governance, the financial risks that unmitigated climate change is creating, climate disclosures, and innovative ways that business leaders can view and implement climate solutions.

A great course! Well prepared, with a high-level professor. A pragmatic explanation with cutting-edge subjects that allows us to understand the complexity and challenges of the ESG agenda, in addition to fostering the strategic thinking that we must have about our performance as executives. It stimulates an overview of the roles and responsibilities of government and the private sector in the challenges of climate change management. A little bit focused on US legislation, but it was very efficient in the context. I truly recommend it.
This was undoubtedly the best online learning experience I've had so far. Also, the course content is astonishing, with great tools for everyone to truly understand complex topics such as those related to this material. Sarah Light deserves all the best as an incredible professor with an excellent teaching method. I am really grateful to have had this opportunity

The facilitator summarised the various standards and guidelines well, which was very helpful. Generally, the course was easy to get through due to how captivating the delivery by the facilitator was.
Le cours sur les facteurs ESG et le changement climatique a été particulièrement enrichissant. Les modules étaient très complets et offraient une vue d’ensemble détaillée des concepts essentiels. Les diapositives étaient riches en informations et accompagnées d'exemples concrets, ce qui a permis d'illustrer de manière claire les notions abordées. De plus, les quiz étaient stimulants et ont permis de bien mobiliser les connaissances acquises, renforçant ainsi la compréhension des sujets. Un excellent cours pour approfondir ces thématiques clés.
