Group sees plastic asset risk amid environmental concerns Print A new report from a shareholder advocacy group says that with consumer brand companies cutting back on virgin plastics and concerns rising over climate change, financial institutions should be worried about overinvestment in petrochemicals. The April 8 report from As You Sow argues that addressing climate change and moving to a net-zero carbon economy will lead to significant reduction in demand for fossil fuel-based products, creating the risk of stranded assets over the long term for plastics and petrochemicals.
