The JP Morgan Asset and Wealth Management Annual Energy Paper is one of the most influential publications among global investment and business leaders in the energy sector. But JP Morgan Chaseâs 2021 Annual Energy Paper is a deeply flawed piece of work that promotes some serious misinformation about the clean energy transformation, reinforcing the mistaken belief â often promulgated by fossil fuel companies â that it will be slow, expensive and require onerous state intervention. Coming from JP Morgan Chase â the worldâs fifth largest bank, and the largest lender to fossil fuel industries – the paper informs the …

As you look up, the mist rises into a thick fog obscuring the terrain in front of you. Youâre holding a map in your hands. It is scant of detail; it only shows key landmarks/milestones along the way with almost no indication of the type of terrain. There is only one path illustrated on the map and it leads straight up the mountain. Itâs not easy to …

We are witnessing the start of the most profound disruption of the energy sector in over a century. Like others throughout history, this disruption is the result of a convergence of several key technologies â namely, solar photovoltaics, onshore wind power, and lithium-ion batteries (SWB). A 100% SWB energy system is possible as soon as 2030 in regions that choose to lead, and because energy accounts for over half of all greenhouse gas emissions, the clean disruption of this sector will be a large part of how we can reduce emissions by 90% by 2035.  A common question that arises …

Decision-makers at the COP26 UN climate summit might do well to remind themselves of a game called âSix Degrees of Kevin Baconâ. Because only by understanding the interconnection of the worldâs problems can we recognize how they can be rapidly solved by addressing them systemically at the root. Invented in the 1990s by three college students, âSix Degrees of Kevin Baconâ was based on the idea that prolific actor Kevin Bacon has appeared in films with a vast number of other actors. For example, Arnold Schwarzenegger was in the movie âDaveâ with Laura Linney who was in âMystic Riverâ with …

The Institute for Cultural Evolution is a vibrant and growing nonprofit organization that needs and deserves your support. This year, as #GivingTuesday approaches on November 30th, we ask you to consider âgiving upstream.â Giving upstream means donating to organizations that are working on the roots of our societyâs problems. No matter which political issue concerns you most, be it climate change, social justice, or inflation and deficit spendingâprogress on that issue is being stymied by America’s gridlocked political condition. Unless we overcome our entrenched divisions, the pressing issues we face as a country cannot be effectively addressed. Recognizing that hyperpolarization …
