Abstract
In recent years, there has been increasing awareness around the issues related to climate change, and substantial amounts of money have been committed to tackle it. This includes undertakings to decarbonize institutional equity investments. Increasing the efficiency of the fossil fuels we already consume is undoubtedly an important focus. However, can we extend this approach to take into account how well we consume other resources (such as water) so that we can look at resource efficiency at large?
