SUMMARY:Sustainability and Energy Transition: The Outlook for Corporate Renewable Energy Use
DESCRIPTION:Sustainability and Energy Transition: Increasing numbers of companies are pledging to cut their carbon emissions\, and some have become major buyers of renewable power to help meet their commitments.

SUMMARY:ESG or Sustainability: You Choose
DESCRIPTION:As an ESG practitioner\, you now have two choices: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can double down on the (delusional) notion that ESG makes the world better (instead of the reality that it’s predatory delay\, which Alex Steffen defines as “the blocking or slowing of needed change\, in order to make money off unsustainable\, unjust systems in the meantime” – I can hear you objecting as I write\, but I encourage you to read this definition carefully and challenge yourself to leverage evidence to prove it wrong.) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOr \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYou can embrace bona fide sustainability\, which ensures its claims by gauging impacts vis-à-vis ecological ceiling and social foundation thresholds (sometimes visualized as a Doughnut\, thanks to Kate Raworth’s 2012 reinterpretation of Barbara Ward’s 1974 conceptualization of social “inner limits” and ecological “outer limits” for the United Nations). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n​— From ESG or Sustainability: You Choose by Bill Baue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a Deep Dive with Bill Baue\, author of the IE Magazine article\, ESG or Sustainability: You Choose \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Our Deep Dives\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDeep Dives are hour-long Zoom Meetings: Live Q&A Sessions (as opposed to our Zoom Webinars\, where the audience is in View-Only Mode) between the author(s) or subjects of a Magazine article and our members. Be sure to read the article in question and come bearing questions! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFeatured Guest\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBill Baue\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAs an internationally recognized expert on Sustainability Context (Thresholds & Allocations)\, Thriveability\, and Online Stakeholder Engagement\, Bill Baue catalyzes systemic transformation. As a serial social entrepreneur\, he has co-founded and instigated several enterprises: r3.0\, Science Based Targets\, Sustainability Context Group\, Sea Change Radio\, and Currnt. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBaue currently serves as Senior Director of r3.0 (Redesign for Resilience & Regeneration)\, a not-for-profit common good that networks a global community of Positive Mavericks focused on transcending incrementalism to trigger necessary transformations that enact living systems principles. In this role\, he serves as the Systems Convener for the Connecticut River Valley Bioregional Collaborative of the Capital Institute’s Regenerative Communities Network. His most recent major writing is as author of the White Paper From Monocapitalism to Multicapitalism: 21st Century System Value Creation (December 2020). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBaue has worked with prominent organizations across the sustainability ecosystem\, including Audubon\, Cabot Creamery Coop\, Ceres\, GE\, Harvard\, several United Nations agencies (UNCTAD\, UNEP\, UNGC\, UNRISD\, etc…)\, Walmart\, and Worldwatch Institute. He serves on the Board of Co-op Power and as Senior Advisor to Preventable Surprises\, and he is a certified Prosocial facilitator. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHe lives near the Connecticut River Valley bioregion\, where his daughters Clara\, Emma\, and Aoife periodically visit. He is a diehard Deadhead who enjoys camping\, hiking\, mountain climbing\, kayaking\, yoga\, meditation\, and dancing contact improvisation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by ImpactEMagazine\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nESG News Editorial TeamThe ESG News Editorial Team is comprised of veteran financial journalists and sustainability analysts dedicated to providing real-time\, objective reporting on global ESG regulations\, climate finance\, and corporate governance.

SUMMARY:2022 ESG Trends to Watch
DESCRIPTION:2022 ESG Trends to Watch – What are the trends and developments MSCI believe investors will see around ESG\, climate change and regulations in 2022? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen MSCI first published their annual ESG trends to watch a decade ago\, climate change\, the value of human and natural capital\, and conflicting demands for water all made the list. The risks of a changing climate\, health and safety\, and our dependence on nature echoed in one form or another in each of the annual forecasts that followed. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhile looking out a year won’t tell you what comes next\, the act of considering annually what lies ahead shows that if you have a long enough horizon\, the ESG risks of today can end up changing the risk profile for investors tomorrow. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin MSCI’s experts Linda-Eling Lee\, Head of ESG & Climate Research and Meggin Thwing Eastman\, Global ESG Editorial Director\, ESG Research Director\, to know what has changed in the past 10 years and what they expect in 2022 and beyond. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by MSCI_Inc\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nhttps://esgnews.com/esg-business/ \nESG News Editorial TeamThe ESG News Editorial Team is comprised of veteran financial journalists and sustainability analysts dedicated to providing real-time\, objective reporting on global ESG regulations\, climate finance\, and corporate governance.

SUMMARY:The Protein Transformation: A Critical Driver of the Net-Zero Economy
DESCRIPTION:The Protein Transformation: The global food system is one of the major drivers of carbon emissions\, climate change\, biodiversity loss\, and depletion of freshwater resources. A dietary shift towards more plant-based food\, and notably traditional plant-based and alternative proteins\, may be key to significantly reduce these environmental impacts. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe invite you to join MSCI and Blue Horizon\, as we discuss the climate risks and opportunities the food sector may face due to the protein transformation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor investors\, we take a look at how MSCI ESG Research’s Climate Value-at-Risk (Climate VaR) model offers quantitative insights into how the protein transformation may be factored into company valuation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor corporate issuers\, we provide insights to help to manage climate risk exposure they may face by participating in the traditional plant-based and alternative proteins market growth. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor regulators\, we explore quantitative metrics to assess the food sector’s contribution to achieving net-zero targets. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Speakers \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister Here\n\n\n\n\n\nTweets by MSCI_Inc\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nESG News Editorial TeamThe ESG News Editorial Team is comprised of veteran financial journalists and sustainability analysts dedicated to providing real-time\, objective reporting on global ESG regulations\, climate finance\, and corporate governance.
