PwC and the World Economic Forum

In a joint report with the Forum, we assess the impacts of international carbon pricing scenarios on economies and industries to help inform the debate and provide insights to governments, businesses and civil societies looking for solutions to reduce carbon emissions. Launched at the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26) in Glasgow, the report estimates the projected revenues that could be raised through carbon pricing and used to manage the transition to net zero.

In collaboration with the Forum and our peers, we helped identify a set of metrics and disclosures that can be used by companies to bring greater comparability and consistency to ESG reporting. For the report, PwC led on the Planet pillar. Progress since the report’s publication includes the formation of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB), and the initiative continues to enlist companies committed to long-term, sustainable value creation.
