Climate variability is a major driver of risk in the mining and infrastructure sectors worldwide. Today, more than ever, it is critical to manage climate risk throughout the entire project lifecycle, from planning and design through execution, operations, and decommissioning.
Our global experts develop practical strategies to manage climate risk and advance adaptation opportunities. Our team integrates innovative climate-related evaluations into all project stages, assessing risks, identifying critical issues, and developing infrastructure designs, operational practices, and nature-based solutions to increase the resiliency of your infrastructure and operations.
Mining operations can be particularly exposed to climate risk, including in the supply chain where severe weather events are increasingly disrupting rail, road, and ports operations leading to potentially significant business losses. To mitigate this challenge, we take a holistic, systems approach to managing climate risk, quantifying these from mine-to-port. We also use this approach for decarbonisation, identifying opportunities for low carbon solutions throughout the supply chain and to support collaboration on green shipping corridors.
Our team specializes in:
- Climate risk assessments for mining (from mine-to-port), infrastructure, industrial operations, and supply chains
- Climate adaptation, resiliency planning and nature-based solutions
- Greenhouse gas measurement and reporting, and development of GHG reduction plans and climate action strategy
- Navigating emerging regulations and standards on climate and GHG emissions, including Canadian Output-based Pricing Systems (OBPS)
- Aligning climate disclosures with emerging regulations and standards, including Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures
- Integration of climate risk management into major capital projects and corporate reporting
