Opinion / #decarbonisation
The US president’s second term is a pivotal moment for ESG, as his administration could reshape corporate responsibility globally.
The promotion of fossil fuel-driven growth by US President Donald Trump poses significant challenges but there are mitigating factors as well.
With one of the weakest carbon taxes globally, the region’s largest economy risks becoming the world's leading enabler of carbon leakage, where emissions aren't reduced, just outsourced to nations with weaker policies.
The US federal policy pendulum is swinging away from facts, reason and basic human decency with Trump re-entering the White House. But it will swing back if city mayors and local leaders insist on effective climate governance.
