| Welcome to WSJ Climate & Energy, a weekly newsletter about the risks and opportunities that climate change presents to business, finance and society. The risks are clear; we'll focus on what's being done to address them and the big challenges that remain. I'm Ed Ballard, a reporter for The Wall Street Journal based in London. My beat—and obsession—is climate change, and how it's leaving its mark on everything from farming to finance. I'll be in your inbox every Thursday with highlights from the Journal, investment news from Dow Jones publications Barron's, MarketWatch and Investor's Business Daily, plus data and analysis on the energy transition from our partners at OPIS, including Chemical Market Analytics and McCloskey. Thanks for reading—and let me know what you think. You can reply to this email or any newsletter, or send me a note at ed.ballard@wsj.com. To ensure regular delivery each week, please add this email address to your contacts list. And please invite friends and colleagues to join us; they can sign up here. |
