Description
The clock is ticking when it comes to climate change. And while innovations like solar power and wind have been around for some time, new technologies are emerging – around energy, agriculture, fashion and more – to help the transition to a lower-carbon economy.On the first episode of a four-part mini-series on sustainability, Steve Howard, Chief Sustainability Officer at Temasek, talks about innovation in the fight against climate change. He discusses emerging areas from electric and autonomous vehicles to spider silk; how we can ensure the energy transition is a just transition; and BlackRock and Temasek’s partnership towards a lower-carbon future.This material is for informational purposes and is prepared by BlackRock, is not intended to be relied upon as a forecast, research or investment advice, and is not a recommendation, offer or solicitation to buy or sell any securities or to adopt any investment strategy.
