Eco Sector; A Challenge to World Investment Industry
Finding and
Nurturing Green Companies Vital for the Planet says Winning Brands CEO
At the heart of these recommendations is the
recognition by individuals and institutions involved in investment that they
more than anybody can determine which worthwhile projects lead to breakthrough
applications in the global economy and security. With severe dislocations and adjustments of a
global scale predicted to arise from global climate change, Lehner feels that
the gatekeepers of investment should reflect deeply upon the power of their
purse. “The investment community can
take a leadership role in this pivotal moment in human history by making the
environment a ‘mainstream’ area once and for all. From now on, every investor, every investment
banker, every fund manager and the entire body of the sophisticated international
money management system should make a company’s environmental positioning the
starting point, not merely a nice fluffy afterthought” says Lehner.
He adds “The paradox is that environmental industries
are often the least sophisticated financially.
They are usually started by people who care, but with ideas that are
much better than the meagre capitalization they work with. The definition of environmental needs to
start including all businesses and industries that foster ecological
sustainability through the avoidance of pollution as well as supporting social
cohesion in the political sense. Whether
it’s bio-dynamic organic farming in matters of agriculture, ending urban sprawl
in real estate development, or any of the vast array of creative solutions that
are languishing in the hands of underfinanced eco companies and inventors – the investment community is the singularly
vital catalyst to implementing new paradigms”.
He concludes that the “ ‘Eco Sector’ should
become a term that is obsolete as soon as possible; climate change is a warning
that everything is “Eco Sector”
because everything leaves a footprint – especially
the choices of the investment community of which practices to underwrite.”
