According to the “Climate Change 2023: Synthesis Report' fashion’s sustainability targets are not aggressive enough.
In a press conference that was livestreamed from Switzerland Monday, Dr. Hoesung Lee, chair of the IPCC, called the latest report the “most comprehensive assessment of the climate change science” and “the resource for policymakers at a critical moment in history.” IPCC reports are drafted and reviewed in several stages for accuracy and clarity with 195 member governments and thousands of comments steering the work over time.
Lee said the report highlights the warning that, “The pace and scale of what has been done so far and current plans are insufficient to tackle climate change.” To make those shifts, climate investment would need to be three to six times the current financing. As WWD reported, the August IPCC report found nationsoutlined under the Paris Agreement to mobilize $100 billion per year by 2020 for meaningful climate mitigation action.
