On 25th November 2015, Carbon Tracker launched the report: “The $2 trillion stranded assets danger zone: How fossil fuel firms risk destroying investor returns”.
The study highlights that fossil fuel companies risk wasting up to $2.2 trillion in the next decade, threatening substantially lower investor returns, by pursuing projects that could be uneconomic in the face of a perfect storm of factors including international action to limit climate change to 2˚C and rapid advances in clean technologies.
The launch event was hosted by UN Principle of Responsible Investment.
