18 The quest ion of cl imate change and sustainability is omnipresent across the world. This presents a range of risks that will have a definite impact on our global economy. Hence, the Arab-Belgian-Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce found it important to further investigate the question and provide proper responses to this major issue for businesses to enable them to take appropriate action. Thus, on May 10, our Chamber of Commerce organized a dinner-conference during which H.E. Mr. Pierre WUNSCH, Governor of the National Bank of Belgium, delivered a comprehensive presentat ion on “a (somewhat European) perspective on the macro impact of climate change”. During his presentation, Governor Wunsch underlined the fact that we are moving on the climate front from the discussion “should we do it and how” to “doing it”; we are no longer at the reflection stage, we are moving towards net-zero emissions in 2050. The event was a great occasion for the participants to meet face-to-face with our experts as well as to expand their network, as it gathered around 70 people among which 15 Ambassadors and representatives from Arab Embassies.
