The partners at Jackson Lalic have maintained a key interest with international instruments such as the Kyoto Protocol since first drafts. Now, with continuing debate over the pending introduction of a price on carbon, existing supportive policies such as the Mandatory Renewable Energy Target, growth in international mitigation and abatement efforts and a growing consensus of the scientific accuracy of climate change and its implications, we will undoubtedly see less talk and more action on the policy front in the near future.
It is inevitable that such action will encroach upon not only our physical environment, but our social and economic environments also. As science continues to develop, so too will policy and regulations develop and evolve, often at relatively rapid rates. At the same time, the world will witness a growing population, peak oil, increased economic activity and the dire effects of diminished energy, food and water security.
Consequently, there will be insatiable demand for solutions to these problems, and other initiatives that show promise for sustainability in a carbon constrained economy.
Whether your interest is in voluntary action, corporate social responsibility initiatives, commercial clean technology development or simply mandatory compliance, this new era brings a myriad of complexity, making it easier to move backwards than forwards.
