Sustainable Finance Summit, Part 1: Sarah Kapnick and John E. Morton
This is the first of four episodes recorded in partnership with Finance Montréal at its Sustainable Finance Summit.
In this episode, Dr. Sarah Kapnick, former Chief Scientist at NOAA and now Global Head of Climate Advisory at JPMorgan, explores how the growing volatility of our natural systems is reshaping resource availability. From drought and the pressure on the Colorado River to soil health and fertilizer-supply shocks, she examines the interconnected risks affecting economies and food systems.
You’ll also hear from John E. Morton, Head of Nature Finance and Investment at the World Wildlife Fund, who discusses why nature is rapidly emerging alongside climate as a critical consideration for investors, with roughly half of global GDP dependent on natural ecosystems.
We hope you enjoy the conversation.
