With approximately 40% of global greenhouse gas emissions stemming from publicly traded firms and the surge in corporate Net Zero commitments, Redwood Grove discusses how we separate the signal from the noise. As a member of the Net Zero Asset Managers Alliance, we divide companies across three categories—those aligned with Net Zero by 2050, those with emission reduction targets, and those lacking meaningful reduction goals. Our analysis process goes further with comprehensive company specific climate research that goes beyond mere pledges, providing a nuanced, holistic view of which companies are well positioned for a low carbon transition.
