Climate Change as a Business Opportunity In the Emmy Award-winning TV series Years of Living Dangerously, Executive Producer Dan Abbasi and his partners spotlighted the current and escalating impacts of climate change on real people and illustrated how awakened citizens and consumers can hold corporations and leaders accountable to drive needed changes. Dan is also a longtime 'low carbon' investor who has built and led a manufacturing company to reduce emissions from aviation and power generation. Dan will talk about how he and others are acting on the conviction that climate change represents the biggest business and investment opportunity in history. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.
