Proud to represent @IIGCCnews on @SkyNews & highlight investor letter sent to leaders ahead of #G7Summit re #ParisAgreement @CeresNews

[Lazard Asset @LazardAsset]

The upcoming #COP27 summit could draw focus to issues such as labeled bond issuance, new tools for governments and investors to track sovereigns’ climate spending, and energy security increasing the impetus for the shift to renewables https://t.co/0WISxcF8sM

NYC pension funds vote to divest $4 billion from fossil fuels reserve owners “Fossil fuels are not only bad for our planet and our frontline communities, they are a bad investment,” said de Blasio. Glad Carbon Tracker was in this discussion.

This is fascinating. Instead of GDP targets, China is focusing on jobs and living standards. Is it a momentary hiatus, or a flicker between paradigms? Are we seeing the beginning of the end of the obsession with endless growth? See thread... https://t.co/3rn1tp4iYw

‘Bumpy road ahead’ is good summary of challenges #pensions face on #ClimateAction and ability to implement @FSB_TCFD. Thanks to @Top1000Funds and @PRI_News

[IIGCC @IIGCCnews]

Mark Carney sees “cognitive dissonance” over climate liabilities/assets - highlighting gaps in risk management & need for increased use of scenario analysis. Good job we've just launched a new guide on the topic https://t.co/82tKvnFEil. Via @RI_News_Alert https://t.co/9I8EShKw2D

https://t.co/mrR6dklzt0 @_ERAFP_ can they ignore that they risk legal action? #climatechange is not "only about #values, #ethics or opinions". It's about #investments risk and opportunities. @MikeBloomberg summed it up "it is good business" @IIGCCnews @CeresNews @Pension4Purpose

[Jennifer Anderson @j_strattan]

Good to see @TheFCA will catch up with with @DWP on plans to introduce guidance on #climatechange for providers of workplace #pensions @ThePLSA @IIGCCnews

Discussion Paper: Climate change and green finance (DP18/8) https://t.co/KnsVX9F2Xz

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

4 reasons for using #climatebreakdown, not climate change:
1. It better conveys the extent of the problem
2. People don't say "So what? The climate's always breaking down"
3. It makes an implicit connection with the impact on our minds
4. It suggests that we can fix it.

[Jennifer Anderson @j_strattan]

Just the start of our journey @TPTRetirement to get #ESG and #ClimateChange embedded in the default option for DC members. It’s been great working with @AB_Insights_UK to get this far, still work to do.

"The climate change risks of tomorrow should be considered by pension funds today." Our Chair @MaryCreaghMP has written to the top 25 pension funds in the UK to ask how they manage climate change related risks to pensions. Read more here: https://t.co/QBs7o1t2Mj

[Jennifer Anderson @j_strattan]

Thanks @MaryCreaghMP for writing to UK’s top 25 pension funds last week re. #climatechange risk. Certainly helped my case that Trustees must look at ESG and climate change for DC default funds @ThePLSA investment conference! @IIGCCnews @PensionsAge https://t.co/hxT0kSZJGE
