To achieve this necessary target, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change states global carbon emissions must reach zero by the end of the century. The World Bank report indicates that the more we wait, the more it will cost to reach this goal. “This report confirms what many others – from both the private sector and academic institutions – have said for more than a decade now: the longer we leave to take action, the more expensive it becomes,” says Mark Kenber, CEO, The Climate Group. theclimategroup.org = Delaying Action on Climate Change will Cost U.S. Economy More than $150 billion Annually, Study Finds businessfwd.org
