More Stranded Assets

Much attention has been paid to the concept that global warming will cause a dramatic drop in the value of carbon
reserves. A major shift towards non-carbon-based energy and non-carbon feedstocks for chemical processes could “strand” assets tied to oil drilling, coal mining, and fracking activities. Various groups have tried to quantify the downside risk to energy companies, if the response to climate change occurs.

However, there are other assets that climate change could strand. And, there are other sustainability trends that could result in stranding other types of assets. Both corporate managers and investors should probably examine these risks, too.

Staying the Course: Business Bolsters Sustainability Through Innovation

There is no doubt that last week’s Executive Order to repeal the Clean Power Plan sent many in the sustainability community reeling. In the midst of this chaos, companies are now either re-evaluating their strategy or re-committing to current plans. Many leaders have already voiced their opinions, from Jeff Immelt at GE to Lynn Good of Duke Energy, calling business into action and encouraging companies to assume a greater role in the fight to preserve climate change policies. In the face of a reality where government regulations have been, and will continue to be rolled back, business is increasingly filling the void and, I hope, will emerge as stewards of sustainability and climate action.
