Davos serves as a platform where world leaders and business executives declare climate change as a crucial threat requiring immediate action. Despite pledges to meet net zero goals and significant commitments like planting a trillion trees, emissions have consistently increased. The urgency of these discussions is contrasted by the reality of historical temperature rises and recent withdrawals from international climate agreements, notably the U.S. under Trump. The current climate rhetoric at Davos increasingly stands at odds with actual corporate behaviors and governmental actions.
Each year, business and political leaders at Davos highlight climate change as a top risk, yet emissions continue to rise despite pledges and commitments.
Many corporations at W.E.F. are retracting their climate pledges, revealing a stark dissonance amidst ongoing discussions about urgent environmental action.
