Climate change: all talk, less action

by Krystal Scanlon 13 May 2021

PwC’s Global Private Equity Responsible Investment Survey 2021 found that while 90% of PE firms are concerned about climate change, only 50% are taking any action. 

Similarly, when it came to carbon footprint, 88% of GPs were concerned about it, but only 48% were taking steps to address the issue. 

Additionally, only 21% of respondents were taking action on their environmental concerns around the net zero global economy, while more than 72% of those surveyed voiced concerns.
