FINN ON COP

A Clarion Call for Climate Action

The threats imposed by climate change are on our doorstep; it’s a global crisis affecting us all, and we must collectively act. The United Nations Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP) is one of the most powerful platforms to make a difference: a forum where world leaders, scientists, activists and innovators come together to chart a sustainable path forward. The conversations and decisions made at this annual event will shape the future of our planet.

Follow us here as FINN experts and our clients lend their voices to the pressing issues leading up to, during and after COP.
