The International Energy Agency (IEA), the world’s pre-eminent energy agency, coordinator of the world’s petroleum reserves, and a part of the OECD, yesterday finally released its long-awaited report “Net Zero by 2050 Report – A Roadmap for the Global Energy Sector”
Profiling low carbon investment opportunities in energy, agriculture and infrastructure.
The 2017 Executive Dialogue is a parallel session to the Brazil Investor Forum in São Paulo on May 30th.
The Climate Bonds Initiative is convening an Executive Dialogue 2017 profiling Brazil’s emerging green bond market and investment opportunities in Agriculture, Energy & Infrastructure.
Working on climate change involves reading a lot of reports. A lot. My general view nowadays is “Enough already! Can you we just do now and stop theorizing?”
But sometimes you come across a report and you find yourself sitting up in your seat and shouting “Yes Yes Yes” like that scene with Meg Ryan in the movie When Harry met Sally.
To avoid dangerous climate change will require the equivalent of another industrial revolution. This can only be achieved if finance into the green economy is increased by an order of magnitude. This may be possible as many low carbon technologies are competitive with fossil fuel if the cost of finance is low enough
