Climate Change and People: Working toward Environmental Goals with Just Transit…

November 15, 2022 /3BL Media/ -As the climate crisis becomes even more dire, companies are setting ambitious goals and taking action to address environmental challenges like never before.  But how do the climate crisis and corporate actions affect the lives of workers, customers, and society at large? What is the impact on communities that have been marginalized, especially given the inequitable impact of climate change these communities are already experiencing?

This panel will explore how companies can redefine their business purpose to better connect climate goals and their people-centered mission statements; opportunities to more deeply connect with stakeholders; and how to pursue the benefits that come with addressing social and environmental goals together.

Join the Shared Value Initiative on Wednesday, December 7th at 10am ET when Matthew Heimer, Executive Editor for Features and Lead Editor of the Change the World List at Fortune will moderate a virtual discussion with two business leaders: Beatriz Tumoine, Global Director for Social Impact at CEMEX, a global construction and materials company, and Leanne Geale, Executive Vice President and General Counsel at Nestlé.
