Natural Climate Solutions - Decarbonizing your investment portfolio

Wednesday, 23 June 2021    14:00 BST | 15:00 CEST

Join Eric Cooperström, managing director, impact investing and natural climate solutions (NCS) at Manulife Investment Management, as he discusses how NCS aims to increase carbon storage and avoid greenhouse gas emissions through conservation and restoration of forests, agricultural land, grasslands, and wetlands. The discussion will be moderated by Sydney McConathy, senior managing director and head of global business development at Manulife Investment Management, and will finish with a live Q&A session. 

As the world’s largest timberland investor* and a leading agriculture investment manager, with over 30 years of experience investing in natural resources, Manulife believes the need to use natural resources to address climate change has never been stronger. Carbon sequestration is key to avoiding the worst effects of climate change, and natural climate solutions are critical to achieving net zero goals. Carbon removal using forestry and agriculture is a key, low-cost climate change solution, which could provide a long-term, diversified investment opportunity whilst decarbonizing your portfolio. 

Join Manulife to learn how investors in forestry and agriculture can make a demonstrable impact on the great challenge of our time.
