ESG RIP: Review of Terrence Keeley’s "Sustainable," Part 4

The importance of Sustainable is reflected in the authorship of its foreword, which is by BlackRock’s CEO, Larry Fink. Acknowledging the controversy surrounding sustainable investing and the lively debate that it has ignited, Fink writes: “I have always believed that the best way to work through big and important questions is through open and robust debate—challenging conventional ideas, finding new solutions.” Concern about climate change is the principal factor that drove the prodigious growth of ESG and sustainable investment.
