Opinion From Storebrand To Virgin Are Businesses Finally Starting To See The Case In Tackling Climate Change

Opinion From Storebrand To Virgin Are Businesses Finally Starting To See The Case In Tackling Climate Change
Richard Branson at an event during New York climate week in 2010.

"By Anders Lorenzen"

As I wrote last week, the Norwegian investor Storebrand, which are also among the largest in the Nordic region, announced that they have excluded ten coal companies from their investor portfolio. This follows on from last year, when they excluded 13 coal companies and six tar sands companies. Earlier last week the company also excluded 11 palm oil companies.

In Davos, Switzerland last week at the World Economic Forum, founder of the Huffington Post Arianna Huffington and entrepreneur and billionaire Richard Branson, unveiled the B Team project to the world audience. The B Team is a partnership group whose aim is to prove that we can have business growth while still respecting human rights and the environment. On BBC News, Branson said that we need to create hundreds of thousands clean energy jobs, to grow the economy, to bring development and basic needs to the developing world, while at the same addressing climate change.

There seems to be a growing consensus in some parts of the business world that dealing with climate change is crucial for business, and carrying on as we are could spell economic disaster; a sentiment which has been echoed by Economist Lord Nicholas Stern. These are sentiments that are now starting to be echoed by some governments, but unfortunately not here in the UK, where the Chancellor George Osborne seems to be of the opinion that adhering to environmental regulations is a luxury we can't afford in the current economic climate.

But on the island state of Great Britain we have a golden opportunity to create a clean energy generation that will create a flow a jobs - a new industrial revolution. But we seem to be stuck in the past, with the fantasy ideology of exploiting every last drop of fossil fuel reserves which we know will one day run out, instead of going for eternal energy of renewables. Prime Minister David Cameron and George Osborne seem bent on the fact that we need a fracking revolution in this country, even though the month of December saw a disastrous month of extreme weather events and the Prime Minister himself admitted that he did believe the increase of these freak weather events was because of climate change.

It is a challenging time to be a consumer. We are now global consumers; we adhere to and live in a global economy and in reality we know very little about where our projects are coming from and the environmental impacts of producing them. Governments still focus very little on sustainable growth and company regulations are hardly visible. For instance in the summer of 2012 during the London Olympics, one of the world's oil majors BP, who just a few years earlier were responsible of the disastrous Gulf of Mexico oil spill, were made sustainability sponsor of the games with the tagline delivering sustainable fuel for the future. Many other examples exist of large corporations using their power to greenwash their image.

But when I sat down recently in Oslo, Norway, with Storebrand's Head of Sustainability Christine Torklep Meisingset, I instantly got the feeling they were keen on sustainability on not just fronting it to greenwash their company image. They are simply doing it because they believe is the right thing to do and it's too risky doing business if not adhering to sustainability. Not many governments let alone companies are strongly opposing the world's largest fossil fuel project, the Canadian tar sands, which so far have mostly been opposed by environmental groups.

Head of Greenpeace Norway, Truls Gulowsen subsequently in a blog post commented that the Storebrand model was right, but he was disappointed in their ambition which he said should have been higher, he did acknowledge though they are almost alone in doing what they are doing.

I partly agree with that sentiment, but I also believe as environmentalists, we're good at criticizing but we're less good at praising. Of course I could wish Storebrand's ambition was higher, but I also understand the complexity that the world economy is based on fossil fuels. I would rather point a finger at other investors who have large holdings of fossil fuels and are showing no signs of divesting.

In Denmark, the largest Pension Fund have heavily invested in the first offshore wind farm in the US and other climate initiatives, that should also be praised. But why is Storebrand and Pension Denmark's examples in the minority? Why are governments not making fossil fuel investments less attractive by phasing out fossil fuel subsidies? These are important questions we should be asking and we should look in horror at examples such as Canada's promotion of tar sands, Poland, the US, and UK with shale gas, and Australia with coal, unfortunately the list is far and wide.

Sadly it does not look like we will see progress on these issues in our political systems and that's why companies like Branson's Virgin, Storebrand, Pension Denmark and other businesses who have taken the lead in this field must continue to lead and encourage other businesses to do the same, while showcasing that environmentally sustainable business models are working.

Geothermal Energy Source Of Green Energy

Geothermal Energy Source Of Green Energy
Today we are at such a crossroad that we have to seriously think about our future and about the sustainability of our resources and most importantly the quality of life that we are living and would be leaving for our future generations. This is because our scarce resources are being used indiscriminately and this is nowhere more apparent than in the energy sector. Here we have seen that the indiscriminate and overuse of the fossil fuels have not only started the scarcity, but also has led to environmental pollution and adverse environmental changes like the depletion of the ozone layers. Thus there is an urgent need to tap other resources that are sustainable and at the same time eco-friendly and hence a new term Green Energy has been coined.

At present research is going on tap natural resources like the wind, the sun, the water and even the heat of the core of the earth. These sources are very good sources for Green Energy as they are present in abundance, are sustainable, are renewable and cause very less pollution.

The energy that is released from the core of the earth is popularly known as the 'Geothermal' energy and is a very good source of Green Energy. It is a non-polluting and sustainable energy and at the same time easily available at certain geographical locations.

The most common resources being the hot springs, shallow ground, hot rocks deep inside the surface of the earth and the earth-core where the temperature is so high that all the minerals and the metals present there are in the plasma state and in the continuous process of radioactive decay and thus releasing more heat and energy. At present, geothermal power can only be tapped at the areas that are closer to the boundaries of the tectonic plates.

At these places, geothermal wells are dug through which the geothermal energy is tapped and utilized. Geothermal energy is one of the most clean and Green Energy resources as we do not have to produce it; we just have to tap it and transmit it optimally. But due to non availability of technology at present, it has not been possible to use it widely as it should have been done. Though many countries are working on it, they have found that at present using it for direct heating is much more efficient and optimal than using it for the electricity generation. It is also more efficient in those places that have low temperature requirements for the heat resource. The heat is tapped through co-generation through geothermal electrical plants, from the small wells or the heat exchangers that are buried in the shallow ground. Due to this geothermal heating is quite economical at few areas only as compared to the generation of the geothermal electricity.

At present many applications are supported by the geothermal Green Energy. District heating application uses the network of hot water pipes in order to heat multiple buildings across many communities. Though geothermal does not require any fuel except for running the pumps, it gives immunity from the various fluctuations of cost of fuel, but the capital cost of setting up the tapping plant is quite high. It would take some time for proper technology to be developed to make it more cost-effective.

Hyundai To Reveal First Fuel Cell Electric Car

Hyundai To Reveal First Fuel Cell Electric Car

Hyundai Motor essence fair in the role of it calls the worlds first production fuel-cell electric vehicles at this weeks Paris van costume.

In arrears existence of sheathing backward the tribe in battery technology, the South Korean automaker is having a bet on fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), which can run five get older as fancy as E.V.s not as much of the hours of nursing argument. The cars, which convert hydrogen and oxygen inwards sea and generating power to spirit an electric motor, are a on realistic technology, according to Hyundai.

The pike question the automaker faces now are production cut, which can run two to three get older as greatly as park E.V.s--not to move up the lack of refueling transportation.

As the manor wrangles once production cut, it essence launch out by pale donate 1,000 FCEVs from December downhill to 2015 in Europe at an to begin with estimation of spherical 88,000...eek.

"We aim to diminish prices of fuel-cell vehicles to be consistent with battery cars by 2020-25," Lim Tae-won, the pilot in nursing of fuel-cell research at Hyundai and its part Kia Motors, told Reuters in no time of the Paris van costume.

Regardless of studies lunch predicted the celebrity of FCEVs essence see a remarkable embellish in development existence, state essence fundamentally depend on client credulity of the technology and the availability of hydrogen fueling stations.
