All Things Sustainable

A deep dive into BlackRock's net-zero plan


Listen Later

BlackRock CEO Larry Fink made waves in the ESG world last month by pushing companies to plan for a net-zero emissions future. His annual letter also committed to taking more concrete steps within BlackRock to enable the decarbonization transition.

In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we dive into BlackRock's own net-zero strategy. We talk to experts about what it means and how much further the world's largest asset manager still needs to go. Fink has acknowledged that BlackRock has a carbon-intensive portfolio and is moving to change that.

We'll hear from Kirsten Spalding, who leads the Investor Network at the sustainability-focused group Ceres. And we'll also hear from Moira Birss, who is Climate & Finance Director at Amazon Watch. Her group is part of a network of NGOs and finance advocates that are pressing asset managers like BlackRock to align their business practices with a climate-safe world.
