FFC Signs The Global Investor Statement On Climate Change

October 27, 2014

FFC has joined with hundreds of investment groups around the world in calling on the United Nations and its member countries to address climate change. The Global Investor Statement on Climate Change was presented to the United Nations before the UN Climate Summit in September 2014. The statement explained that well-crafted climate change policies will spur global investment in renewable energy. Governments can ease the transition to a more sustainable future by relaxing regulations on promising low-carbon innovations, phasing out subsidies of the fossil fuel industry, and investing in renewable energy. FFC believes that the business community should take the lead in combating climate change. The transition to a low-carbon economy creates opportunities for businesses worldwide to innovate, create, and invest in a more sustainable future. We believe that the Global Investor Statement on Climate Change reflects our values by urging broad international action on climate change at this critical juncture.
