Think energy efficiency.<\/li>\n<li>\u201cSecurity\u201d may be Word of the Year in 2025. Can climate policy add to our need for security of exports? We may be able to better deploy our industrial carbon pricing systems, run by the provinces, to position Canadian products as cleaner than others, especially in the U.S. and European markers.<\/li>\n<li>Expect more dual-purpose alliances for energy security and climate action. A G7 approach to nuclear energy cooperation, for instance, could add to Canada\u2019s role as host in 2025.<\/li>\n<li>Private capital will continue to move ahead of public policy. As we will show in our upcoming Climate Action 2025 report, climate capital is still growing \u2014 not as much as it needs to, but the trajectory is up.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Innovation and technology will be key. Even in tight budget times, we\u2019ll need to invest ambitiously in research and development.<\/li>\n<li>International financial institutes like the World Bank will need to take on more of the climate finance load for developing countries. Will China step up to help? And how will the U.S. react?<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0Developing nations will continue to raise pressure around resilience and adaptation. More money for disaster-proofing may be a good thing, unless it comes at the cost of prevention.<\/li>\n<li>As the world\u2019s biggest emitters \u2014 the U.S. and China \u2014 go their own ways, other countries will need to build bridges between North and South, East and West, rich and poor, big and small. Is that still a role for Canada?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Great comments from a range of countries, with a general concern that the headwinds for climate action are growing, and more international cooperation will be needed, even in a more divided world.<\/p><style class=\"advgb-styles-renderer\">@media (min-width:782px){#tl-fpb-1 .tl-featured-post-banner__gradient{background:linear-gradient(135deg, #070707, #00356300 100%);opacity:1;}}@media (max-width:781px){#tl-fpb-1{background-image:url(https:\/\/www.rbc.com\/en\/thought-leadership\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2026\/06\/DL-Blog-Image-Template-BLANK_Banner-wide_v2-1-scaled-1.jpg?quality=80&w=4096)!important;background-position:50% 50%!important;background-size:cover!important;min-height:400px!important;}#tl-fpb-1 .tl-featured-post-banner__gradient{background:linear-gradient(45deg, #070707, #00356300 100%);opacity:1;}}h2.title-text{font-size: 2.8rem;font-weight: 400;line-height: 1.2; margin-top: 20px;}.mySlides {display:none;}.carousel-wpr.side-controls .carousel-ctrl .carousel-prev {left: 0px;}.carousel-wpr.side-controls .carousel-ctrl .carousel-next {right: 0px;}.banner.fw-bnr{    background-position: center;}.text-script{}@media screen and (max-width: 640px){}@media only screen and (min-width: 1024px) {.banner.fw-bnr {background-position: 0!important;}}@media only screen and (min-width: 1200px){.banner.fw-bnr {background-position: 0!important;}}@media only screen and (min-width: 1276px){.banner.fw-bnr {background-position: 0 -193px !important;}}@media screen and (min-width: 2501px) and (max-width: 4000px) {.banner.fw-bnr {background-position: 0 -429px!important;}}<\/style>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The RBC Climate Action Institute co-hosted a special session today in Ottawa with the British High Commission, to share views with the diplomatic corps<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":300,"featured_media":3480,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"disable_focal_point":true,"featured_image_focal_point":{"x":0.5,"y":0.5},"advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","editor_notices":[],"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[129],"tags":[],"rbc_tl_platform":[134],"rbc_tl_newsletter":[],"rbc_tl_content_type":[126],"rbc_tl_author":[154],"class_list":["post-1486","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-climate-action","rbc_tl_platform-climate-action-institute","rbc_tl_content_type-article","rbc_tl_author-john-stackhouse"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.7 (Yoast SEO v27.7) -
