The Climate Justice Playbook For Business (Credit: Guayaki) The momentum continues to grow for businesses of all types and sizes to develop and disclose climate action plans and performance. Most recently, President Biden announced on May 20 an Executive Order on Climate-Related Financial Risk, with wide-ranging implications for investors, companies and regulators. However, it is important for businesses developing climate action plans to recognize that climate justice goes hand in hand with climate action. According to The Climate Justice Playbook for Business recently created by B Lab, the COP26 Climate Champions Team, Provoc, and the Skoll Centre for Social Entrepreneurship at the University of Oxford, climate justice is the recognition that the effects of climate change have a disproportionately negative impact on the historically marginalised and underserved – primarily people of colour and low income communities around the world. Climate justice is a complex, intersectional issue that is woven deeply into economies, cultures, and the natural world. For this reason, businesses must approach the complex and intersectional opportunities and challenges of climate justice with a multi-dimensional and systems-thinking lens.
