JC3 Climate Data Catalogue
The data catalogue contains critical data needed by the financial sector to support pre-identified use cases, and includes data that are available, partially available, and unavailable, as well as observations on data gaps.
The data catalogue is aimed at serving as a source of reference on climate and environmental data for the financial sector and represents a call to action for stakeholders to collectively improve the availability and accessibility of climate data.
