About Us

Realising the 2030 UN Sustainable Development Goals is a trillion dollar business opportunity. Some of the biggest opportunities lie in transforming the global energy, food and land use systems. Achieving the Global Goals is intrinsically linked to the Paris Agreement and its goal to limit global warming to well below 2°C. Failing to do so could put up to US$ 24 trillion of assets - almost of 20% of all financial assets - at risk by the end of the century.

At South Pole, we work with businesses and governments across the globe. We help realise deep decarbonisation pathways across industries, based on a thorough understanding of climate risks and opportunities in specific sectors, as well as the highest emission reduction standards.
