ESG Is Business as Usual for Boards
Boards are navigating waves of change on many fronts, and ESG is a powerful current bringing new risks and opportunities into view. As policymakers, regulators, investors and civil society press their causes, competing narratives claim attention across the United States and international markets. The questions facing corporate boards come swiftly in the wake of this attention: What is the board’s role? Is ESG a diversion of time, attention and precious company resources?
Carrots First
Anne Simpson, Global Head of Sustainability, and Ben Meng, Chairman of Asia Pacific, Franklin Templeton, consider how government incentives can accelerate the shift to green energy. Many government policies – both carrots and sticks – are driving the global transition to greener energy systems. To analyse the global transition drivers, we compare regulatory sticks, like carbon pricing, with carrots, like feed-in tariffs that subsidise solar renewables.

10 reasons to believe Christ rose from the dead
10 reasons to believe Christ rose from the dead 16 April 2017 The resurrection of Jesus is no fairytale. Here's 10 reasons why we can stand on the foundation of our faith - that Jesus rose from the dead. 01 A public execution assured his death During the Jewish Feast of Passover, Jesus was swept away by an angry crowd into a Roman hall of justice. As he stood before Pilate, the governor of Judea, religious leaders accused Jesus of claiming to be the king of the Jews. The crowd demanded his death.
To activate hope, activate capital
The atmosphere at the end of last month’s United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP27) in Egypt was rather sobering. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has forced countries to turn to thermal coal and other fossil fuels to meet their energy needs, likely postponing the transition to a net-zero economy. But COP27 also underscored the need to leverage public policy, regulation, and technological innovation to achieve a climate-secure future.

Water Risk Is a Financial Risk: Companies Will Soon Have the Tools to Calculate, Disclose and Mitigate It
For too long, investors have lacked the data and analytics to make well-informed investment decisions around the financial risks of water impacts. That is about to change. Writing in 1756, Benjamin Franklin noted what is now evident to many investors: “When the well is dry, we know the worth of water.” The scale and increasing severity of water risk is percolating through financial markets and the stakes are high.
Food Innovation And Sustainability
By Anne Simpson, Global Head of Sustainability, Franklin Templeton According to Anne Simpson, Franklin Templeton’s Global Head of Sustainability, feeding a growing global population in the midst of climate change, geopolitical shocks, and uncertainty over the coming decades requires innovation in food and agricultural technologies. Understanding investment and impact is what sustainability is all about: taking care of people, the planet and prosperity.
The carbon price solution
SAN MATEO, CALIFORNIA — The quest for carbon neutrality has begun in earnest. More than 70 countries, including the world’s biggest polluters, have set net-zero targets for carbon dioxide emissions, with hundreds of cities, companies and investors committing to complementary strategies. But a successful net-zero transition will require a fundamental transformation of the real economy.
The carbon price solution to net-zero transition
The quest for carbon neutrality has begun in earnest. More than 70 countries, including the world’s biggest polluters, have set net-zero targets for carbon-dioxide (CO2) emissions, with hundreds of cities, companies, and investors committing to complementary strategies. But a successful net-zero transition will require a fundamental transformation of the real economy. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which has roiled global energy markets, has reawakened concern with energy independence.
The carbon price solution
The net-zero transition requires the rapid development at scale of new technologies, energy-efficient infrastructure, and carbon capture and storage. A carbon price, together with the elimination of fossil-fuel subsidies, would give investors powerful incentives to finance these and other imperatives. The quest for carbon neutrality has begun in earnest.

How to Pronounce Knife The note had been typed out, folded over two times, and pinned to the child’s chest. It could not be missed. And as she did with all the other notes that went home with the child, her mother removed the pin and threw it away. If the contents were important, a phone call would be made to the home. And there had been no such call. The family lived in a small apartment with two rooms. On the wall of the main room was a tiny painting with a brown bend at the centre.

The best Christmas present ever
The best Christmas present ever Garry at the Family Store in Griffith with Corps Officer Major Lyn Cathcart.
