Remarks at the Accounting for Sustainability Summit 2018  Remarks given by Mark Carney, Governor of the Bank of England  Accounting for Sustainability Forum, St. James’s Palace London 21 November 2018  I am grateful to Alice Carr, Emma Dalhuijsen, Edd Denbee, Vishal Desai, Sini Matikainen and Jennifer Nemeth for their assistance in preparing these remarks. 1  All speeches are available online at www.bankofengland.co.uk/publications/Pages/speeches/default.aspx  I would like to thank His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales and Accounting for Sustainability for inviting me today. It is an honour to be able to mark his 70th birthday in this way. We are gathered at St James’ Palace, but not for a lavish celebration. It is to HRH’s credit that this happy occasion is marked by a serious discussion of the risks and opportunities posed by climate change and the transition to a low carbon economy. His Royal Highness has provided inspirational leadership on these critical issues for decades. Indeed if we had heeded his advice when it was first offered, we might have already solved the Tragedy of the Horizon!
