Getting a grip on decarbonization with effective internal carbon pricing
Regulators and other stakeholders are increasing pressure on organizations to monitor, improve, and share information on their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. They want increased transparency around targets, timelines, and plans and are increasingly demanding actual results from decarbonization efforts. The number of emission trading schemes (ETS) and carbon taxes is rising worldwide. In 2024, 75 carbon pricing initiatives were in place, covering 24% of global GHG emissions. Other countries are discussing implementing their own carbon pricing schemes.

Accelerating the financing of sustainable transport fuels
Transport was responsible for 14% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in 2023. While electrification is the most efficient way to decarbonize road transport, inland/nearshore shipping, and even short-haul flights, it does not cover every use case. That means different approaches will be needed for areas such as long-haul flights (2% of GHG emissions) and shipping (1% of GHG emissions).

Seabed mining: A $20 trillion opportunity
Seabed mining offers a unique US $20 trillion opportunity to extract critical minerals that are essential for batteries, electric vehicles (EVs), and other green technologies. This Viewpoint explores the economic potential and environmental impact of seabed mining as an alternative to traditional land-based mining, which faces challenges due to declining ore grades, stricter environmental regulations, and rising production costs.
