The time for talking about climate action is past. Organisations that are not responding to decarbonisation will be left behind.

How Fiona is building a better working world

I am passionate about understanding the risks and opportunities of climate change, including the physical impacts resulting from the changing climate, and the transition risks and opportunities presented by the global shift to net zero emissions.

Assisting clients to understand and respond to these risks and opportunities, including decarbonisation strategies and disclosure of climate-related information, enhances the creation of long-term value for these clients and supports a more orderly climate transition across the economy.
