Great article! I've tried to promote voluntary corporate action for decades. Limited success is possible, but not the radical changes we need to have even a small chance to stay within safe carbon budgets. So yes, let's not only discuss which technologies we want and need, but also which policies. Indeed, my experience is also that most companies/CEO's have not thought about what policies they need to make their net zero commitment reality. Investors should in my opinion weigh corporate action on policy lobbying far more heavily in their ESG scorecards. That is far easier and far more effective than endless discussions about scope 3 emissions....
