What You'll Learn
As global momentum for climate action grows across the world, climate change is increasingly seen as a form of financial risk. This has led to requirements for climate-related disclosures in many jurisdictions, for listed and non-listed companies, including Singapore. Corporate climate disclosures, the setting of science-based climate targets and development of net zero transition plans to decarbonise will increasingly become an integral part of doing business.
Singapore is well placed to be a carbon services hub in the global push towards net zero emissions. This course introduces you to the science, principles and fundamentals of corporate climate disclosures to give them an understanding of the perspectives and scientific motivations behind standards and analytical tools available. A deeper understanding of standards and tools will allow you to tackle emerging issues in climate disclosures in the rapidly evolving landscape of corporate net zero transition.
Topics covered include the scientific foundations of the Paris Climate Agreement targets and future pathways, reporting standards, emissions accounting and estimation, metrics and indicators, voluntary carbon credits, science-based targets and scenario analysis.
