A Sustainable Future

Dr. Rachel Melsom, Tobacco Free Portfolios, on the Case for Going Tobacco Free

13 Mar 2018

Description

Dr Rachel Melsom describes why investor engagement with the tobacco industry, relative for instance to the fossil fuel industry, is futile because of its negative health and social repercussions. She also explains why international policy momentum - the WHO Tobacco Convention, the UN Global Compact Statement and the UN's Sustainable Development Goals - provide a framework to understand the broader socio-economic implications of tobacco, and the momentum behind recent investor announcements to go tobacco-free.
