CONTENTS
Mitigation refers to actions taken to reduce or prevent the emission of greenhouse gases, with the goal of slowing down global warming and limiting future climate impacts.
Example in context
A manufacturing firm invests in solar energy and energy efficiency upgrades. While this doesn’t eliminate physical risk, it contributes to mitigation and may reduce future transition risk.
Why it matters
Mitigation works hand-in-hand with adaptation. It’s central to Paris-aligned scenarios and long-term sustainability strategies, especially for companies making net-zero commitments.
