Canadian tar sands ... dirty energy
Energy is an essential driver of the modern global economy, but it is not all good. In fact there is a critical downside which could be mitigated with appropriate investment. The issue is why investments that preserve the environment do not get done while investments that make money ... especially dirty money, are easily funded. The TVM initiative is to combine money profit accounting with 'valuadd' accounting so that all economic activity is accounted for in a comprehensive manner. Under this analytical construct it becomes easier to relate both the money profit and the valuadd within the investment decision. It brings the social impact investor and the money profit investor into the same capital market in parallel rather than expecting the successful money profit investor to turn philanthropist and then do valuadd investing. Time is too short.
