What is the best-kept secret about behaviour change?

19/5/2020

 
By Nick Lyth
That it is NEVER rational, it is only enforced.
​
Since the start of the 1990’s, when the facts about climate change and global warming had become obvious to all; when the problems with resource use and resource allocation were overwhelmingly clear; when the Brundtland Report had articulated a new system for global social and economic self-preservation which was adopted by all the World leaders at the 1992 Rio Earth Summit; Behaviour Change has been referenced as a necessary pre-condition for solving these problems.

Chris Stark, CEO of the UK’s Committee on Climate Change, talks Covid-19 and climate change

11/5/2020

 
By Antoine Pradayrol
​On 7 May, Green Angel Syndicate organised a Zoom-powered ‘fireside chat’ with Chris Stark, CEO of the UK’s Committee on Climate Change. The event drew strong interest, with 82 attendees dispersed in as many thumbnails on the screens. Its timing was perfect, just a day after the CCC had published a letter to the government with precise, crystal clear advice on how to embed climate-positive actions in its plans to drag the economy out of the profound recession caused by the Covid-19 crisis.

​​​​This blog summarises the main points made by Chris, in our own words.

Green Angel Syndicate’s first portfolio impact assessment

6/3/2020

 
By Antoine Pradayrol
Tackling global warming and climate change, by supporting businesses that develop solutions to cut greenhouse gas emissions, and more generally that help the environment. That is Green Angel Syndicate’s core mission – and we are determined to make the largest possible positive impact.
​
But what is this impact? How can we measure it? In our view, it must be measured as the impact that our portfolio companies are making, as a group. Indeed, this aggregate impact is what Green Angel Syndicate Members’ investments are making possible, by helping these companies grow.

Powering the world on renewable energy by 2050: investing in key enabling technologies

9/2/2018

Can the world be 100% powered by renewable energy, and if so when? We believe so, by 2050. We know that this is an extremely ambitious target, and not the consensus amongst researchers, but we think it is achievable thanks to three massive trends that we expect to unfold over the coming decades.

10/8/2017

This is the second article in our series of three on the Clean Transportation Revolution. In the first one, we took a close look at electric vehicles. In this second one, we will focus on autonomous vehicles (AVs).  Driverless cars are coming. The first models could be available for purchase within two years and some predict that by 2030, 95% of passenger miles travelled in the US could be in on-demand autonomous vehicles. It is very likely that children born this year will probably never drive a car.​

Is this the end of cars as we know them? Reading tech blogs and think tanks’ research, you could be forgiven for expecting that in a few years, the world will have effortlessly moved from human-driven combustion engine cars, owned by their drivers, to fleets of electric ‘robocars’ summoned by their users.

Past performance is not necessarily a guide to future performance. The value of an investment may go down as well as up and investors may not get back the full amount invested.
