Family forest owners steward 39% of US forests, more than the federal government or corporate owners. Managed well, those nearly 300m acres could offset 350m metric tons of CO2 per year, or as much as 78m cars, writes @marcellorossi87 for @ImpactAlpha

UP NOW: "ESG is big business for @BlackRock even if Larry Fink won’t call it by its name. At least, not right now," writes @ImogenNYC.

#Privateequity firms have been raising big funds and writing big checks for renewable energy, climate tech and industrial decarbonization. They’re just getting warmed up.
