Excellent article highlighting some of the issues in this fast changing area of investment. There is undoubtedly too much focus on divestment as if disavowing oil companies or other perceived problem companies will change the world. It won't, at least not for a very long time as carbon related fuels will still be close to 70% of energy usage for the foreseeable future. Far better to use engagement to improve the behaviour of companies that exist in the real world in a manner that can provide not only growth in developing markets , where self interest, and in many cases survival, will be far more important in the short term than concerns over climate change.
