flag WWF urges Bank of England to tackle climate risks threatening inflation and stability.

flag The Bank of England faces growing pressure from WWF to strengthen its handling of climate and nature-related risks, which are seen as fueling inflation and threatening financial stability. flag The charity says the central bank lags behind global peers, urging it to boost expertise, improve climate impact analysis, and better communicate risks. flag It calls for alignment with net zero and nature-positive goals, coordinated market operations, and stronger collaboration with government policies to manage supply chain disruptions from extreme weather. flag Rising food prices due to climate-driven shocks in coffee and cocoa production underscore the economic toll. flag This follows prior criticism after the Bank reduced climate-focused resources amid shifting Treasury priorities. flag The Bank has been approached for comment.
