[Julia Naime @julianasah]

Nice piece by @xiaoying_you at @DialogueEarth_ , discussing different #EV battery technologies and our recent report at @RainforestNORW that looks into the biodiversity and #deforestation due diligence of automakers.
We can cut the demand for high deforestation risk minerals!

[Lead the Charge @Lead_theCharge]

Emerging battery technologies offer the opportunity to minimize mining impacts like deforestation by reducing the need for rare minerals.

But as @julianasah of @RainforestNORW told @xiaoying_you of @DialogueEarth_, caution is needed.

"Cutting the demand for some “high risk” minerals and battery chemistries will allow the industry to reduce its negative impacts on biodiversity and forests, said Julia Naime.

"But she also warns that 'caution is needed so that alternative battery chemistries do not create other adverse impacts on nature or people.'”

@StorliMarie @Morgenbladet Informativ artikkel og tråd! Hva tenker du om forskjellen mellom USA-EU-Norge, både inflasjon og responsen på den?

Whilst many banks were challenged on their poor climate efforts, it's clear this work must be ramped up further! But encouraging to see increased civil society cooperation at #AGMs via @BankTrack @natasha_ion https://t.co/Q78YcC8hOk

Toneangivende britisk pensionskasse sælger olie- og gasselskaber fra pga manglende effekt af aktivt ejerskab.

[Adam Tooze @adam_tooze]

Norway’s government is readying plans to open an area of ocean nearly the size of Germany to deep-sea mining as it seeks to become the first country to extract battery metals from its sea floor.

[Fair Finance International @FairFinanceInt]

👏Excellent piece by @SOMO - Exempting investors like BlackRock undermines EU's commitment to #duediligence. As trilogues begin today, it's vital to include asset managers & investors. #CSDDD

@FinancialTimes Very welcomed decision by Norges Bank Investment Management @NorgesBank #NBIM regarding #Exxon and #Chevron but why not demand the same from #BP #Shell and #Total

[CAN EUROPE @CANEurope]

🤔Europe has delivered two incompatible GPS systems:
📈GDP growth
💪climate action
says @adelaidecharli2

It is essential that Europe's economy delivers people's wellbeing within planetary boundaries and moves away from growth obsession.
