Notes de l'éditeur
- ABI and leading insurers have been involved in climate change debate for over a decade – and the reinsurers around twice that We reached a significant tipping point last year, through the leadership that the Prime Minister brought, putting climate change at the heart of the international political process This leadership, together with the commissioning of important studies like the Stern Review, has led to much wider acceptance of the reality of climate change, the impacts it will bring and the need for urgent action The work of UKCIP and its stakeholders, many of whom are present today, has laid the foundations for managing climate risks and the effects they will have on our daily lives This study is ABI’s latest contribution to that important work
