HESTA, has become the first established fund in Australia,
. . . to announce that it is restricting investments in coal,
. . . across its entire $29 billion portfolio.
Investment bank HSBC this week coined a new expression,
. . . 2°C finance – to describe those investments which are consistent with,
. . . reaching the climate goals that every government has signed up to,
. . . but are yet to act on.
Australia exemplifies this.
. . . Having attracted billions of dollars in low-carbon investments in recent years,
. . . that capital is now drying up.
