Executive Summary
2024 will be a year of tremendous uncertainty for the world and its climate. Wars and elections are creating geopolitical tremors, while the second year of El Niño continues to create record heat and geophysical shocks. Amidst this chaos, regulators in the US are hesitating to formalize climate rules, while regulators in the EU barrel ahead. The growing question is whether this will be the year that we surpass the 1.5° C barrier.
One thing is certain, the operating environment in the year ahead will consist of a unique set of challenges. Corporate leaders, along with the services and software providers who support them, will need a clear strategy if they are to seize the opportunities that emerge from a period of seismic change.
