Against the backdrop of UNGA 76, Wood is supporting the Global Goals Business Avengers, representing Sustainable Development Goal 7, Affordable and Clean Energy to accelerate progress towards a more sustainable, livable world.

As the leading environmental health risk in Europe, air pollution can lead to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases and lung cancer, causing 400,000 premature deaths annually. To tackle this challenge, the European Union launched the Second Clean Air Outlook report, which focuses on the potential to reduce the number of premature deaths resulting from air pollution by 55% in 2030 by regulating sources of air pollution and minimising the impacts of climate change.

Wood has formed a partnership with AIG, a leading global insurance organisation, and the University of Strathclyde's Institute for Future Cities to help cities and businesses adapt to the impacts of climate change and achieve a successful transition to a low-carbon economy.
