Minister of Climate Change James Shaw believes this existential issue represents both risk and huge potential for businesses in New Zealand.

The Climate Governance Initiative, Deloitte and the World Economic Forum, have produced three new guides to help boards steer their organisations toward net-zero emissions.

The Climate Governance Initiative (CGI) has produced a summary of each of the IPCC Working Group reports, focusing on key insights and applications for directors.
