Prestigious award for Mark Campanale for sustainability role

Very many congratulations to Mark Campanale, founder and executive chair of the financial think tank, Carbon Tracker, and advisor to FaithInvest, on being awarded the 2021 Joan Bavaria Award for Building Sustainability into the Capital Markets at the Ceres' annual conference.


Mark Campanale was recognised for his lifelong dedication to aligning capital markets with the realities of the climate crisis – most notably through advancing his 'unburnable carbon thesis', which shines a light on the financial risk that fossil fuel companies and their investors face from stranded oil and gas assets.


He helps to make a clear fiduciary argument for the decarbonisation of investment portfolios. Mindy Lubber, CEO and President of Ceres said the award recognised Mark's outstanding role in helping 'lead to a transformational shift about how we think about the energy sector and its relationship to the health of our planet and the long-term stability of the economy'.
