In this episode of our Climate Risk series, host Brad Hurley, senior communications consultant at ICF, is joined by Jesse Keenan, a social scientist at Tulane University and one of the editors of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission's Managing Climate Risk in the U.S. Financial System report, to discuss how the private sector is poised to do its part to manage climate risk. The conversation covers topics such as:

• Transitional risks as society shifts to a net zero carbon strategy.
• The wide-reaching impacts of a regional event (e.g. wildfires, drought) on multiple commodity markets.
• How changing consumer preferences amplify uncertainties—and opportunities. 
• Steps regulators can take to prepare for risks related to climate change.
• Barriers to financial institutions’ ability to measure their climate risk.
