Accelerating the Transition to a Sustainable Economy in a Post-Covid World: What has changed, what have we learned, and what can business do now?

The University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership (CISL)
The landscape of business has been radically transformed. Discussions about business action on sustainability are now taking place against a COVID-shaped backdrop of geopolitical and economic shifts, growing – and increasingly visible – inequality, heightened awareness of systemic flaws and human vulnerability, and societal fractures and polarisation. In addition, many businesses are operating in regions with high levels of government, corporate and private debt and growing levels of unemployment. CISL invited close friends, Senior Associates and Fellows to a series of conversations to explore the implications of these challenges and transformations for business action on sustainability. This report provides an overview of the key insights that emerged from these discussions.

Impacts of Climate Change on Fisheries and Aquaculture: Synthesis of current knowledge, adaptation, and mitigation options

The work is based on model projections, data analyses, and national, regional, and basin-scale assessments. Overall, the results indicate that climate change will lead to significant changes in the availability and trade of fish products, with potentially important geopolitical and economic consequences, especially for those countries most dependent on the fisheries sector.
