"Cascading, compounding and aggregating" - I caught up with Rosemary Addis at the close of the recent Impact Investment Summit Asia Pacific, and in this episode we begin by talking about the last two years since we met in person, science, intersectionality, COVID and climate impacts, the latest IPCC report, our slip backwards in poverty and education and the impact this has on our ability to achieve the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
This is paralled with seeing a profound sense of the importance of human connection and shifts in peoples search for meaning and their investing choices. We also touch on findings by the World Health Organization, supply chains, the unequal impact of natural disasters on women, the link between geography and inequality, and put a call out to people running organisations as to how they can get things back on track, and bring about equally cascading, compounding and aggregating positive change.
We talk through David Ritter, CEO of Greenpeace Australia Pacific's recent call to action around lobbying Government, and then move into a series of reflections by Rosemary;
Are you sacrificing being directionally correct for being precise? And could you end up pricesely wrong? What should we be focusing on? Do we have the systems now to move with confidence? What does Rosemary mean by "it's not about measurement - it's about management" ?
We also look at the new Impact Measurement and Mangement for the SDGs course which you can signup for here - https://bit.ly/impactforSDGs

Kristin Siegel, Head of EMEA, Toniic | The case for measurement, and not letting it get in the way
Smarter Impact
12/15/22 • 22 min
Kristin and I go into the nature of Toniic, a global organisation of 500 high net-wealth individuals, family offices and foundations "the global action community for impact investing". Then we talk cultural norms, pioneering measurement and finance innovation in environments amendable to rapid change, 'Article 6, 8 and 9 funds' in the EU's Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulations and legacy energy assets.
We then discuss the variety of apetite for impact investing, theories of change, values, the speed of innovation, Project Drawdown, the Impact Management Project, Pymwymic, NEXUS Global and The ImPact - then Kristin gives us her 'quick start guide' to get going with Impact investing; "Don't get discouraged, but also do get started", and we end with a philosophical riff on the role of capital, GDP and consciousness.
This interview is based on Kristin's contributions to our latest free guide, 'No more greenwashing: Driving evidence-based practice in ESG & Impact Investing' which you can download for free at http://bit.ly/nomoregreenwashing

Mark Williamson, Clean Energy Regulator | Carbon Markets, Solar PV and Australian Prosperity
Smarter Impact
06/24/22 • 13 min
Join Mark Williamson, Executive General Manager of the Clean Energy Regulator and myself from Victorian State Energy Summit with thanks to the Smart Energy Council.
We discussed the soon to be formed Australian Carbon Exchange, the new Guarantee of Origin program for our upcoming hydrogen economy which will eventually spread to ammonia, aluminium and steel, the specific role of the Clean Energy Regulator in the market, and discussed Australia's world leading rooftop solar penetration and the findings in the latest Quarterly Carbon Market report.
In light of Zoe Daniels and Monique Ryan Chairing two of the day's panel discussions, Mark and I discussed the continuity of programs and outlook of the Regulator through the recent transition of government, and their prioritised focus on declining the baselines for Australia's big emitters via the CER's Safeguard Mechanism.
I asked Mark for the simplest way he could give me to make power consumption relatable to someone outside the energy industry, and we talked through the country being on 50% renewables by 2026 and the governments 82% by 2030.
Closing out, we touch on the breadth of innovation at scale related to the Certificate of Origin program with folks like Fortescue Future Industries and the Sun Cable project, our previous ultra low, negative energy pricing for solar during the day and our upcoming investment in and necessity for upgrading our transmission lines.

Paul Holthus, CEO, World Ocean Council - Leading the way to responsible sustainable practises
Smarter Impact
06/16/22 • 13 min
Join Paul Holthus, CEO of the World Ocean Council and I from the 2022 APAC Impact Investment Summit, as we discuss the purpose and scale of the World Ocean Council in creating industry leadership in keeping the global ocean healthy, such as by lowering emissions by reducing biofouling on vessels, and the need and opportunity for investing in and developing port reception facilities to tackle broad solid waste challenges. These include the 150 million tons of plastics in the ocean, the 11 million tons being added every year, the 5 countries responsible for 95% of this waste.
We move on to "Ships of Opportunity" which is working to use the 90,000 merchant vessels and three to four million fishing boat to collect data to help document and responsibly use the ocean. We also talk about the great need for investing in the creation of technologies that will improve our understanding, monitoring and management of oceans and climate change.
I ask what Paul what he's changed his mind about over the past decades, and what needs to happen next when it comes to 'Corporate Ocean Responsibility', before we discuss the open oceans;
Paul outlines how open ocean carbon sequestration is the only frontier big enough to enable us to sequester the gigatons of carbon needed to truly tackle a warming planet, and leaves our conversation with his one piece of advice for investors focused on climate change and leaving a better future for the world.
Find out more and join the organisation at https://www.oceancouncil.org; Paul and team are particularly happy to help investors really understand where they can make a difference.
