Our Sustainability Quarterly magazine features the latest innovations, legal and regulatory updates, and sustainability-related news from across key global markets.

In this issue, Paul Simpson, the co-founder and CEO of the Carbon Disclosure Project, shares his thoughts on the actions that governments, organisations and investors must take in order to avoid catastrophic global climate change.

We also look at the sixth IPCC report, which UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres describes as a “code red for humanity”, and HFW partner Jo Garland talks about the critical transition to clean energy, the challenges and rewards for businesses, and how managing climate impact affects commercial strategy.

Finally, HFW corporate finance partner Wing Cheung outlines the initiatives that are helping to establish Hong Kong as Asia’s leading green finance hub, we assess the future of sustainable aviation, and HFW disputes PSL Nicola Gare covers the latest sustainability-related legal developments.
