E112 Adam Hedley: The Climate Clause
“We called it carbon trading, but no one stopped to ask what we were actually trading.”
Carbon markets. ESG litigation. Climate credibility.
Adam Hedley, Partner at Clifford Chance, and one of the leading voices in environmental, health & safety (EHS), carbon law, and ESG regulation, joins Rich this week to break it all down
From growing up in Durham to navigating boardrooms in London and Houston, Adam's story is anything but conventional — and neither is his take on the global carbon economy.
He’s not here to play it safe.
This is a conversation about law, yes — but it’s also about leverage, power, and the systems driving the next global economy.
Whether you're in sustainability, finance, legal, or just want to understand what really sits beneath the climate headlines — this episode is unmissable.
