At the 2015 United Nations Climate Conference in Paris, world leaders, UN agencies, NGOs, and intergovernmental organisations gathered with the aim of achieving a legally binding and universal agreement on climate and a goal of keeping global warming below the threshold of 2°C.

This webinar will explore the outcomes of the Climate Conference, giving listeners:

  • An overview of what has been decided in Paris and what, if any, opportunities have been missed
  • Insight into how, post COP21, these decisions will be translated into national or international legislation and regulations
  • Understanding of the implications for business and other stakeholders

This webinar was hosted by the Institute of Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability.

This webinar is behind a paywall, but please contact ICRS at stephanie.attal-juncqua@carnstone.com for free access.
