New report on fiduciary duties and how they pertain to climate change:

https://www.netzerolawyers.com/publi...-for-investors

Here's the short version of the report's conclusions:
Quote:
  • Climate change is accelerating.
  • Climate change and nature loss are not a linear process.
  • Physical risks resulting from climate change and nature and biodiversity loss increase, too.
  • The impacts on GDP are expected to be substantial.
  • According to a recent study, assets lose as much as 40% of their value (in net present value terms) in a business-as-usual scenario.
  • Risks and losses can still be very significantly reduced if robust action is taken to mitigate climate change.

Embed climate risks in the decision-making process, and integrate climate risks and opportunities in the investment policy, by following these 5 pillars:
  • Avoid investment in new unabated high-emission projects
  • Integrate physical risk, stranded asset risks and litigation risks in ROI assessment
  • Sustainable and responsible investing in transition ("financing reduced emissions" rather than "reducing financed emissions")
  • Active, effective stewardship to reduce financial and existential risks
  • Policy advocacy to lower climate risks and create a level playing field
