As we prepare for the whirlwind of activity that is Climate Week NYC, running this Sunday through next, we are excited to once again feel the inspiration that comes from collective ambition and action on the critical topics of climate, resilience and sustainability. With a nod to the 2024 event theme, “It’s time,” this edition of “Future Ready Features” looks at the importance of holistic thinking and interdisciplinary approaches to resilience and adaptation; the benefits of Life Cycle Assessment in helping organizations mitigate their environmental impacts; the financial risks associated with the worst impacts of climate change; and how to get started on a meaningful decarbonization journey. We’ve also included a mention of the Climate Week panel discussion and reception we are hosting next Thursday, September 26, at our NYC office at PENN 1. All the details and registration link are in the newsletter, if you would like to join us! #ClimateWeekNYC #Sustainability #Environment #FutureReady #WeAreWSP
