Climate Change Risk Management Strategies

Climate Change does, or will, impact organisations to different extents and in different ways. It is clear that, by their nature,  some organisations are highly exposed to the risks that a changing climate is bringing. However, it is unlikely that many organisations (if any?) will escape the impacts altogether.

Most large companies are already taking action to lessen the negative impacts that climate change brings, take advantage of the opportunities and consider possible future scenarios. Many mid-sized and small organisations, however, are being left behind. They have not considered the risks, let alone developed a strategic plan to manage them now and into the future.

The well-used adage says that you can’t manage what you don’t measure. This applies to measuring impacts of climate change. When you understand what the current and future impacts are or may be, you can plan to lessen the consequences and see where the opportunities lie; because there are opportunities for the organisations that face up to the risks and develop good strategic plans.

 Our Climate Change Risk Programmes

We customise each program to the specific needs of the organisation and can include:

• a risk assessment of the business activities to identify and assess the risks
• developing processes in consultation with your management team to minimise the risk and consequences of climate change and identify the benefits on offer
• providing ongoing staff training and awareness campaigns
