Canada’s biggest pension fund demands SASB and TCFD disclosure. Very encouraging! But when ESG assumes legal liability assoc w/ regulated disclosure, we could see less reporting, not more. Hope emerging standards have a plan. #BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor

Vatican divests from #fossilfuels and urges all Catholics to avoid investments that deal in weapons, harm the environment, or contribute to social problems. I'd say that's good advice to everyone.

Watching New Zealand PM's reaction in TV interview during a 5.8 earthquake - not to mention her stellar pandemic response - just reinforces my belief that all world leaders should be women https://t.co/WDuhGPqrpK

The FT is right. Investment is changing. Investors are increasingly owning their responsibility to ensure our economy doesn’t destroy our planet & builds good societies. But there’s so much more to do as another decade of Responsible Investment begins. https://t.co/AVkbVaM2EU

Great read from .@RajThamotheram on #greenwishing -  the hope that voluntary sustainability efforts are closer to achieving the necessary change than they really are, and how this wishful thinking could undo real sustainability efforts.

@SteveWestly These problems are connected. It's time we started dealing with these challenges systemically and not individually

@guardian This. He did it for this, so we'd all go crazy talking about it. It deserves to be ignored, and the media should follow suit. This is not news.
