About

The world is changing. Science has shown that the impacts of climate change are happening now, and faster than we had predicted, hitting populations from the Bahamas to Mozambique through to Australia, Western Europe, and the United States. HEC Paris offers the Business and Climate Change programme.

Overview

Key facts

Global temperatures are rising because of carbon emissions, largely caused by human activity.  International reports indicate that we must limit global warming to 1.5° C to avoid irreversible and catastrophic impacts. For this to occur, carbon dioxide emissions need to decline by about 50 percent by 2030 and reach net zero in 2050. While the goal is within reach, it requires urgent and unprecedented social and economic transformation, which will lead to a radical redesign of the way we live, travel and do business. HEC Paris's Business and Climate Change wll teach you more about this subject.

Programme Structure

Courses include:

  • Command global and regional resources/energy issues across the various segments of the value chain
  • Understand international and national energy & climate policies, including carbon taxation and carbon trading systems
