Abstract

The recently signed Paris Agreement, ratified by 195 countries at the 21st Council of the Parties, potentially signals a change in the urgency with which the world will address the risks of climate change. The Agreement sends a clear signal that the world will be transitioning to a low-carbon economy that will look radically different — from an energy perspective — than the one we know today. While the degree to which the ambition of the Agreement is matched by actions remains to be seen, we believe the energy transition is already underway and change is now inevitable. As a result, investors face both risks and opportunities, but more importantly, we believe investors have a responsibility to actively drive this transition.
我们所知的世界末日
在第21届缔约方理事会上,195个国家批准了最近签署的《巴黎协定》,这可能标志着世界应对气候变化风险的紧迫性发生了变化。该协议发出了一个明确的信号,即世界将向低碳经济过渡,从能源的角度来看,这种经济将与我们今天所知道的完全不同。虽然协议的目标与行动的匹配程度仍有待观察,但我们相信能源转型已经在进行中,变化现在是不可避免的。因此,投资者面临着风险和机遇,但更重要的是,我们认为投资者有责任积极推动这一转变。
