Kate Adie presents stories from Israel, Guatemala, The Philippines, Greece and the Faroe IslandsUS Secretary of State Anthony Blinken is in the Middle East for another round of crisis diplomacy. After the assassination of a senior Hamas leader this week, there are now concerns the conflict will widen. Tom Bateman has just left his post in the Middle East and is now covering US foreign policy from Washington - which as he reflects - might have to draw on some lessons from history.Ahead of his inauguration next weekend, Bernardo Arevalo, Guatemala's President-elect, has had to contend with a series of attempts to prevent him from taking power. His victory in elections last year confounded all expectations, and was widely seen as a repudiation of Guatemala's political elite, which has been dogged by corruption allegations for many years. But, the country's democratic future is still hanging in the balance, says Rory Sullivan.Linda Pressly meets with a Catholic priest and a forensic pathologist in the Philippines, who are exhuming the remains of victims of Rodrigo Duterte's war on drugs. In the process they discover evidence that points to a very different version of events to the official line.Heidi Fuller-Love visits the Greek island, Antikythera, whose remote and idyllic setting is its greatest allure for visitors, but it also poses its biggest challenge for the small number of residents there. Now the Greek government is paying people 500 euros to live there.And finally - Tim Ecott reports from the Faroe Islands of the North Atlantic where residents are trying to conserve their land and traditions in the face of an influx of tourists.Series Producer: Serena Tarling Editor: Richard Vadon Production Coordinator: Gemma Ashman

We're back! Series 2 gets off to with a bang as we chat responsible metal (no, not the obscure music genre) with London Metal Exchange's Chief Sustainability Officer Georgina Hallett.

This week we're talking Transition Pathway Initiative with Professor Simon Dietz, a man who belies his 71 years of age (according to Google anyway) and talks climate, climate modelling and climate economics with wit, charm and dry humour. We had a lot of fun hanging out in London together last week and hopefully that comes across in the show. Quote of the day: all models are wrong but some models are useful!

This week we're talking Net Zero, with Dan Gardiner of the Institutional Investor Group on Climate Change (IIGCC) and Valentin Jahn of the Transition Pathway Initiative (TPI). These experts take us on a journey looking at what net zero means (it's not as straightforward as it sounds), how a company comes up with a net zero business plan (it's not as straightforward as it sounds) and what investors need to do to help the transition to a net zero economy (it's not as straightforward as it sounds - you get the picture).

We discuss how to go about investing sustainably in Africa, how to tie sustainability to sovereign debt, and ask just how do we measure the carbon footprint of a nation anyway?

This week we are joined by the head of stewardship and main architect of the Financial Reporting Council's new Stewardship Code, Claudia Chapman. This week the FRC announced the very first signatories to the new UK Code, and we discuss the challenges and opportunities for both asset owners and asset managers in using the code as a reporting and communication tool.

This week we have the holder of the best job title in all of responsible investment, John Howchin. We talk about the mine tailings initiative, how we can use that as a model, and where we might want to use that model next. Some really interesting discussions on what the next steps in responsible ownership for large asset owners might look like - a Marshall Plan for climate stewardship. Gripping stuff.

This week we are joined by the Chief Operating Officer (and joint Chief Sustainability Officer) of Uniper, David Bryson. Uniper have a large fleet of largely fossil based electricity production assets, and so this was a perfect chance to talk about the energy transition with a strategically inportant company with much work to do to transition their assets. With an outline aggressive net zero plan for 2035, David's role in making the future of the European power fit for the future is hugely important. He's also a great guy to talk to.

This week we are joined by current PRI CEO Fiona Reynolds, a giant in the responsible investment scene. We talk about what led to the decision for her to stand down from the PRI to return to Australia, where disclosure stands at the moment, and really try and get a feel for what responsible investment really means. We're so grateful to have her on. Rory Sullivan with his dullest and yet arguable most useful book of the week this week - definitely one to put on the buy list: https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/An_Introduction_to_Corporate_Environment/LKo0DwAAQBAJ?hl=en Please feel free to connect with any of the hosts on LinkedIn or Twitter Fiona Reynolds: https://www.linkedin.com/in/fiona-reynolds-6b987168/ Rory Sullivan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rory-sullivan-73188418/ Adam Matthews: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adam-matthews-84926b31/ David Hickey: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-hickey-cfa-05633526/

This week we're joined by investment management royalty, Jupiter's Edward Bonham Carter. We have a wide ranging conversation including greenwashing, the current glut of disclosure, the lack of justice in some environmental solutions, shadow boards and influential siblings.

In 1917, German pilot Werner Voss had set out for a patrol over the Western Front when he encountered two flights of British fighters, including seven of the best pilots in the Royal Flying Corps. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll describe the drama that followed, which has been called "one of the most extraordinary aerial combats of the Great War." We'll also honk at red lights in Mumbai and puzzle over a train passenger's mistake. Intro: The minuet in Haydn's Piano Sonata in A Major is a palindrome. In 1909, Ulysses, Kansas, moved two miles west. Sources for our feature on Werner Voss: Barry Diggens, September Evening: The Life and Final Combat of the German World War One Ace Werner Voss, 2012.

Oceans generate half of the oxygen we breathe, supply us with food and provide livelihoods – in short, they play a critical social, environmental and economic role for us.   But our oceans are in danger. Plastic accumulating in them has become a global crisis and at current rates, plastic is expected to outweigh all the fish in the sea by 2050. Abandoned, lost and discarded fishing gear – or “ghost gear” – makes up 10% of the plastic pollution in oceans every year. And by weight, ghost gear accounts for 70% of all floating macro-plastic debris. So, how is ghost gear impacting our oceans? What are seafood companies doing to mitigate negative impacts of ghost gear? And what can investors do on this critical issue? Join the PRI’s Head of Environmental Issues, Gemma James, as she delves into the topic. Gemma is joined this episode by guests Rory Sullivan, Co-Founder and Director at Chronos Sustainability, and Lynn Kavanagh, Campaign Manager at World Animal Protection.   Please see links below of projects discussed in the podcast: The PRI’s work on plastics: https://www.unpri.org/esg-issues/environmental-issues/plastics Global Ghost Gear Initiative: https://www.ghostgear.org/ Investor letter asking MSC to include ghost gear in its new certification standards: https://collaborate.unpri.org/group/786/stream

Growing up with small-town roots, between big city living and backcountry roads, it's no wonder Rory Sullivan developed a unique mix of musical taste. His blending of sounds, ranging from the versatile guitar and songwriting of James Taylor, husky voice of Marc Cohn, and contemporary pop sensibilities of John Mayer, allows Rory to create music worthy of the icons that preceded him.
