- Climate change worsening, multiple breaches of the safe threshold of 1.5-degree centigrade rise in global average temperature.
- Geopolitical tensions and modest global economic recovery.
- Energy challenges presented by the rise of GenAI.
- Meeting Net Zero GHG emissions before 2040 will depend on replicating success in other carbon-intensive sectors.
- Vendors’ lack of awareness regarding labor compliance, need to reassign tasks frequently due to changes in vendor SPOCs, and delayed resolution of non-compliance issues.
