“The resilience of sustainable investing is likely to have many causes, some of which are not yet sufficiently understood. However, what is clear is that investors’ appetite for firms with a strong ESG track record seems to persist during times of unexpected market turbulence.”
“OCG - Saving The Ocean - built a search engine that helps clean the ocean. Founded in December 2019, the non-profit organization is committed to saving the coasts and marine lives from plastic pollution.”
"Although oil and gas executives do not directly benefit from supporting or endorsing nuclear energy, it is evident that that most oil and gas executives support the expanded role of nuclear energy because of nuclear energy’s obvious benefits and practicalities. Having oil and gas executives openly support nuclear energy sends a powerful message to political leaders, policy makers and the general public about the need for improved energy literacy and better policy solutions."
MasterResource, a free market energy blog, outlines four reasons why alarmists are wrong about climate change.
"The United States desperately needs to hasten the development of supply chains for critical minerals that don’t involve China and Chinese companies for both commercial and national security interests. Unfortunately, current policies, including regulations from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), are doing exactly the opposite. They are hurting demand for electric vehicles, the very products that will incentivize the development of these supply chains. Instead, Washington needs to unleash the power of the US market by removing barriers to accessing capital, fast-tracking manufacturing, providing high-level diplomatic support, and promoting domestic demand."
While the ban will not slow down immediate production, it could have serious implications for the future stability of America’s energy sector and long-term global climate progress.
The Independent Petroleum Association of America has launched The ESG Center and is embracing an environmental, social, and governance message to win back investors skeptical that fossil fuels have a future.
"FERC’s proposed transmission planning rule requires regional plans to study Dynamic Line Ratings and Advanced Power Flow Control. This would be a leap forward for America’s grid, but FERC can’t stop there. Further, specific requirements will be needed, and incentive reform will drive utilities toward an optimized transmission grid. As more generation and storage plug in at the distribution level, we’ll also have to apply these tools on the lower voltage grid. This is another reason utilities must put GETs in their toolboxes today."
“ACWA Power, CWP Renewables, Envision, Iberdrola, Ørsted, Snam and Yara launched a coalition called the Green Hydrogen Catapult with the aim of deploying 25 gigawatts of renewables-based hydrogen production capacity by 2026.”
"Despite these massive hydroengineering efforts, China can’t feed its own people or supply enough water for its industrial economy. More than 75% of China’s surface water supply is contaminated and undrinkable. Under current United Nations standards, the amount of water available in Beijing places the megalopolis in a state of 'extreme water scarcity.' Much of China’s farmland is too polluted by heavy minerals and salinization to grow edible crops. China is now the world’s largest importer of feed grains, accounting for 60% of global imports of soybeans. It also imports 70% of its cooking oils."
