My letter on the @financialtimes.com story on BP/Shell’s climate rollbacks is now published.

The key takeaway: most investors should recognize that the interests of major polluters are often at odds with their own long-term portfolio interests—and should act accordingly.

Food is a human right. Yet millions across Europe lack access to good food, while Big Ag profits from food systems that harm our health, farmers, animals, and nature.

That needs to stop, now.

👀 BlackRock just lost another ~$6B mandate after backsliding on addressing climate risk to its clients’ portfolios.

NYC pension trustees meet this week and could approve the @nyccomptroller.bsky.social recommendation to shift $42B for the same reason. 🍿
PME, a Dutch pension fund overseeing about $70 billion, has severed ties with BlackRock based on an assessment that the world’s largest money manager no longer acts in its best interests on issues such as climate risk.

Today is the start of the UN Environment Assembly, where States will consider the Colombian proposal for a treaty, and in the immediate, a working group.

This is a bold initiative that deserves support from all govts!
Mineral extraction should not happen at the cost of people and planet.

Governments meeting at the UN Environment Assembly this week should support Colombia’s initiative for a binding minerals treaty. #UNEA7
