g environment: Michael Sabia, CEO of Caisse de Depot et Placement du Quebec, addresses a sustainable finance roundtable as the G7 environment, oceans and energy ministers meet in Halifax on Tuesday, according to The Toronto Star. Andrew Vaughan / THE CANADIAN PRESS The G7 ministers will be discussing climate change, plastics pollution, illegal fishing and clean energy at the meeting. Michael Sabia, chief executive of the Caisse de D p t et Placements, spoke Tuesday at a roundtable discussion on sustainable finance on the eve of a three-day meeting of G7 environment, oceans and energy ministers in Halifax. Sabia said government action is urgently needed, but he also urged capitalists to stop seeing climate change solely as a risk, and to get on with seeking profits from the need for more renewable energy, low-energy real estate and low-carbon transport systems. It's a profitable investment opportunity, said the executive. Climate change and responding to climate change is an important investment opportunity. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
