The journey to Net Zero with the City of London Lord Mayor

Recorded on location at the historic Mansion House in the City of London, the 693rd Lord Mayor London, Vincent Keaveny, spoke in person to our host Keesa Schreane ahead of the Net Zero Delivery Summit, that was supported by London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), which took place at the halfway milestone between COP26 in Glasgow and COP27 in Sharm El-Sheikh. In our exclusive interview, the Lord Mayor talked to us about the City of London Corporation's own climate action strategy, which has the goals of becoming net zero by 2027, and how they are trying to bring those businesses housed in the Square Mile with them.  He also discussed the role of government and multilateral development banks in influencing business leaders to just transition, as well as what needs to be accomplished between now and COP27 to meet the long-terms goals. We’re excited to debut a new segment on the show called the Green Room, where we dive into the latest research in Sustainable Investing, hearing from experts across the London Stock Exchange Group. Today, we chat to John Simmons from FTSE Russell who has just written a new paper on Carbon Emissions.  https://www.ftserussell.com/research/mind-gaps-clarifying-corporate-carbon
