Description

We have a looming global crisis but Covid has changed everything. In the new world of a pandemic, there has been an unprecedented decline in global energy use. Covid has made us re-evaluate our lives and our carbon footprint. The price of oil collapsed, prompting a 60% decline in profits by the leading oil companies around the world. It’s a wakeup call for the entire financial sector to adjust to the catastrophic effects of climate change which the majority of the population is accepting as real. We are seeing many financial institutions around the world adopting policies that are against investing in coal. Unfortunately, Australia is a laggard and not a leader when it comes to climate change, while countries such as India are moving forward in leaps and bounds towards a Net Zero goal. It is critical we all come together to ensure we lift up into climate action, rather than languish slowly towards change.. For more head to: codachange.org/podcasts
