Leadership in climate action
Volvo Cars’ commitment to sustainability is further reinforced by the recognition of its CEO, Jim Rowan, who was named to TIME’s 2024 Climate Leaders List.
Jim has been acknowledged for his innovative leadership in creating sustainable business practices and addressing climate challenges head-on.
The TIME100 Climate Leaders List identifies individuals making measurable contributions to tackling climate change. His inclusion highlights Volvo’s dedication to a sustainable future through net-zero emissions and circular business practices.
“I’m honoured to be included on the TIME100 Climate Leaders List among individuals driving impactful change,” comments Jim.
“This recognition reflects the collective efforts of everyone at Volvo Cars. It takes thousands of dedicated people to drive our sustainability agenda forward and we are united by a common ambition: to reduce the use of fossil fuels and take the actions required to advance the climate agenda.
“We are at a pivotal moment in history and the shift from fossil fuels to clean energy has never been more urgent. Electrification offers a powerful opportunity to reduce carbon emissions, improve air quality and create more sustainable jobs.
“However, real progress needs collaboration and everyone can play their part. That includes businesses delivering on their sustainability ambitions, consumers choosing brands wisely, Governments prioritising clean energy through stable and supportive policies and the financial sector accelerating capital allocation toward sustainable growth.”
Dassault Systèmes’ platform, paired with Volvo Cars’ innovative ethos, marks a significant step forward in redefining electric vehicle development and sustainable mobility.
