- Summary:
-
"Climate change has the potential to become a systemic risk to our financial system, with grave consequences for our economy and society. Banks can enable enormous social good, but are bankrolling fossil fuel expansion and driving the climate crisis instead. This is compounding climate risks in the broader financial system. Improving the visibility of climate risk is welcome, but isn't enough on its own to drive capital out of fossil fuels and into clean energy at the speed and scale needed now to tackle the climate crisis. A coordinated effort involving banks, the Australian Government and financial regulators is needed to protect our financial sector, and enable every part of our economy to rapidly phase out the use of coal, oil and gas."-Publisher.
