You say that climate change and finance are intertwined. Can you explain how and why?

When it comes to climate change, everything is intertwined and connected. Science, technology, economics and finance cannot and must not be looked at in isolation.

Economic analysis, in turn, requires a scientific understanding of state-of-the-art climate modelling so that everything is linked together.
