Future skills

Peter du ToitI'm the founder of FutureWork IQ where I spend my time assisting businesses to improve their climate literacy so as to understand the projected impacts from the expanding climate crisis and how to adapt their workplaces in the face of these impacts.

Back in January of 2020, I highlighted that Carbon Literacy would become a necessary future skill all businesses will need to have.

This is becoming clearer now that carbon emission reporting is becoming mandatory.

How exposed is your business (or career) to fossil fuels? Do you know?

“Central banks and other financial regulators complain that there is a lack of reliable data about how exposed businesses on their territories are to climate risk and how environmentally friendly or otherwise their activities are.

“Such data are now most often collected on a voluntary basis, although some jurisdictions such as France have already made such reporting mandatory.”
