Good science and economics show that if we make decisions with climatechangeinnovationin mind and we price fossil fuels so they are paying more of their full fare, we will end up wealthier as a world than if we ignore climatechange.
Investors, too, demand quarterly performance and generally fail to examine how companies are preparing to manage climate and other environmental risks or even to exploit promising opportunities in clean energy innovation that are our best defense against catastrophic climatechange impacts.
