The Net Zero Banking Alliance has now lost all of its leadership from the US banks. It's hard to see a path forward for global bank action on climate without the US at the table. #NZBA financialpost.com/fp-finance/ban…

With Donald Trump about to move into the White House in coming weeks, things are about to get chillier in the world of #sustainablefinance and #ESG. But it won't be a deep-freeze. My forecast in @corporateknight.

Andy Chisholm is a respected leader in Canada’s #sustainablefinance sector. Here’s his plea to take action to fight climate change and compete in the race to build a #netzero economy.
Corporate Knights@corporateknight

Investment industry veteran Andy Chisholm has a strong message for Ottawa: stop studying Canada's #decarbonization problem and just get on with it. Read the full story by @EugeneEllmen ⬇️ #cdnpoli @isfcanada corporateknights.com/category-finan…

The key to making #carboncredits work is to ensure that projects financed by credits provide additional and permanent carbon removals that wouldn't have been achieved without credits. That's the work that still needs to be done. My take in @corporateknight.
Corporate Knights@corporateknight

The new int'l framework for carbon credits announced at #COP29 will create “cowboy carbon markets at a time when the world needs a sheriff," warns @CarbonMrktWatch. Read @EugeneEllmen's latest on why the guidelines may fail to save carbon offsets. corporateknights.com/category-clima…

Trump's policies could unleash 1 billion more tonnes of CO2. But renewable power is cheap, #ESG investors are resilient and there is political support to save some #cleanenergy programs. My take on Trump and #sustainablefinance.
Corporate Knights@corporateknight

There are two schools of thought about the #ESG fallout from Trump's victory: some predict massively delayed climate transition; others say renewables will keep their momentum. @EugeneEllmen surveys the mood among sustainable investors post-election: corporateknights.com/category-finan…

3/3 Projects to displace more polluting fuels internationally (presumably, gas to displace coal) could be considered. But LNG plants claiming this are underway. They don't need new financing. LNG expansions could be proposed, but they wouldn't be economic or in the 1.5C limit.

2/3 New gas production (ie LNG plants) are very unlikely, given the declaration that the govt does not anticipate this will be eligible. More...

1/3 Chrystia Freeland's green and #transitionfinance labeling framework is long overdue and welcome. There are details to come, but the framework lays the foundation for billions in climate-oriented bonds, funds and investment strategies. More... canada.ca/en/department-…

The SBTi report and discussion paper have come out against #carbonoffsets in place of real corporate #decarbonization. Does this mean the carbon offset industry will fade away? Not necessarily. My article in @corporateknight.
Corporate Knights@corporateknight

A major @sciencetargets study found that carbon offsets are 'ineffective' at climate mitigation. @EugeneEllmen writes the report could further deepen troubles in the $2-billion carbon-offset market. corporateknights.com/category-finan…

The federal government should demand a plan from Cleveland-Cliffs for reducing Stelco’s carbon footprint after its takeover, or how it will survive the market transition to #greensteel . My take in today’s Spectator. #Hamont thespec.com/opinion/contri…
