How can I invest for climate change?

Dec 1, 2022

Discover how investors can adapt their portfolios to slow, stabilize and potentially reverse the effects of climate change.

Sustainable Investing Research Team

The effects of climate change—such as extreme storms, heat, drought and rising seas—are being felt in every region of the world. These consequences also come with a number of compounding effects, like increased water and food scarcity, diminished biodiversity and damage to lives and property from catastrophic weather events. 

To date, most climate investing has gone to building out renewable energy generation and storage. Adaptation, by contrast, has been underfunded. Looking at the sources of emissions (Exhibit 1), it is clear that reducing energy emissions is not enoughAlong with emissions reduction across all sectors, carbon removal and the retrofitting of physical assets for some inevitable climate change are also needed. 

Exhibit 1: Sources of global greenhouse gas emissions

Energy production and general industry are major sources of the greenhouse gas emissions causing climate change, but other sources also need reduction. Source: International Energy Agency, data as of 2022. Data is sourced from the IEA Energy Data Centre, global power system operators, statistical releases from national administrations, and recent data from the IEA Market Report series that covers coal, oil, natural gas, renewables, electricity and energy efficiency.
This chart details the sources of global greenhouse gas emissions. Power production consistently ranks as the highest polluting sector, followed by industry, transport and buildings.

As the world works towards securing a net-zero future, reduction, removal and retrofitting offer potential opportunities for investors looking to build a climate resilient portfolio. Along with investments to decarbonize the energy supply, here is a set of approaches that employ all three Rs—greenhouse gas reduction, removal and retrofitting—to adapt to climate change.

The three Rs of climate investing: Reduce, remove and retrofit

These three approaches to climate investing give investors different ways to incorporate traditional and emerging technologies into their overall strategy.
 (EXHIBIT 2).

Exhibit 2: Climate investing approaches and how they work

Investors can participate in the three Rs and the opportunities they present Source: J.P. Morgan Asset Management; information as of December 2021.
This chart details three approaches to climate investing—reduce, remove and retrofit—and how they work. Reduce is made up of three categories: energy supply decarbonization, energy demand reduction and process transformation. Removal consists of natural carbon sequestration and mechanical carbon removal. Retrofit contains water efficiency/enhancement, food/agriculture reinvention and adapting the existing environment.

Reduce: To date, most climate investing has focused on decarbonization of the energy supply. There are also less well-known opportunities to reduce energy demand and to transform other (nonenergy) carbon-intensive processes.

  • Decarbonization of the energy supply can be accomplished by accelerating renewable energy generation and storage. The deployment of these technologies can be further incentivized through regulation such as market-based Renewable Portfolio Standards for utilities, which increase the amount of clean energy.
  • Reductions in energy demand may decrease emissions in the near term as power grids transition to renewable sources. This also reduces operating costs, making reductions economically desirable beyond climate considerations.
  • Transforming carbon-intensive processes is also needed—for example, introducing lower carbon versions of cement formulation; finding raw materials that can substitute for those derived from oil and gas (like plastics or fertilizer); and improving resource efficiency more broadly to reduce demand for virgin raw materials, catalyze more recycling and encourage a circular economy.

Remove: Carbon removal offers an alternative for industries or processes where carbon-neutral substitutes are not yet available. This involves removing excess greenhouse gases from the atmosphere naturally or mechanically. Greenhouse gases can even be removed from the ocean, which absorbs CO2.1

  • Nature-based carbon removal: Carbon is naturally sequestered in trees, plants, soils and plankton—which creates a number of investment opportunities. The mature forestry industry currently provides investible timber products.2 Nonprofits, governments and private funders have supported the development of other nature-based removal projects (such as soils, kelp or mangroves), but standards for verifying carbon removal are still evolving.
  • Mechanical carbon removal: Technology to lock carbon underground or within new materials is under development. In 2021, the U.S. Department of Energy announced the Carbon Negative Shot, a formal call for carbon removal innovations with the goal of reducing the cost of removal below $100 USD per ton of carbon or its equivalent (tCO2e).3 The Biden-Harris administration has since announced up to $1.2 billion USD in funding for direct air capture demonstrations in Texas and Louisiana. Both projects are expected to remove more than two million metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere each year and create thousands of jobs.4

Retrofit: The World Bank estimates that up to $500 billion USD will be needed each year until 2050 to globally adapt to climate change.5 Adapting to inevitable climate change comes with upfront costs, but it may offer potential benefits from avoided damages:6

  • Water efficiency: Regional droughts, changes in precipitation patterns and over-pumping of wells necessitates new innovations that increase water supply. In 2022, droughts alone caused $77 billion USD in damages across the world.7 Graywater recycling—which reuses water from baths, sinks or other appliances—and purifying water through biomimetic membranes are just a few solutions that can improve efficiency. 
  • Reinventing food and agriculture: Global population growth and changing consumer habits will raise food demand by 2050.8 At the same time, resource scarcity—from water to arable land—is placing stress on agricultural productivity. The agriculture industry will need to adapt to changing climate conditions to feed a greater number of people. This can include vertical farming or plant-based meat and dairy alternatives.
  • The built environment: Investments are needed to protect existing infrastructure against damage from climate extremes. Buildings and infrastructure need to be built or retrofit to withstand the climate of the future, in addition to climate change that has already happened.

Where do we go from here?

The three Rs present a diverse number of opportunities to get involved with climate investing. Some of these opportunities are spearheaded by start-ups seeking venture funding for innovations involving a higher risk of technological failure but potentially higher returns. More mature options like energy production have longer track records with lower return profiles. This gives investors options to consider as they build a more resilient portfolio that addresses the effects of climate change while potentially generating returns.

KEY RISKS

Sustainable investing (“SI”) and investment approaches that incorporate environmental social and governance (“ESG”) objectives may include additional risks. SI strategies, including ESG SMAs, mutual funds and ETFs, may limit the types and number of investment opportunities and, as a result, could underperform other strategies that do not have an ESG or sustainable focus. Certain strategies focused on particular sectors may be more concentrated in particular industries that share common factors and can be subject to similar business risks and regulatory burdens. Investing on the basis of sustainability/ESG criteria can involve qualitative and subjective analysis and there can be no assurance that the methodology utilized, or determinations made, by the investment manager will align with the beliefs or values of the investor. Investment managers can have different approaches to ESG or sustainable investing and can offer strategies that differ from the strategies offered by other investment managers with respect to the same theme or topic. ESG or sustainable investing is not a uniformly defined concept and scores or ratings may vary across data providers that use similar or different screens based on their process for evaluating ESG characteristics. Additionally, when evaluating investments, an investment manager is dependent upon information and data that may be incomplete, inaccurate or unavailable, which could cause the manager to incorrectly assess an investment’s ESG/ SI performance.

The evolving nature of sustainable finance regulations and the development of jurisdiction-specific legislation setting out the regulatory criteria for a “sustainable investment” or “ESG” investment mean that there is likely to be a degree of divergence as to the regulatory meaning of such terms. This is already the case in the European Union where, for example, under the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (EU) (2019/2088) (“SFDR”) certain criteria must be satisfied in order for a product to be classified as a “sustainable investment”. Any references to “sustainable investing” or “ESG” in this material are intended as references to our internally developed criteria only and not to any jurisdiction-specific regulatory definition.

YOUR INVESTMENTS AND POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Conflicts of interest will arise whenever JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or any of its affiliates (together, “J.P. Morgan”) have an actual or perceived economic or other incentive in its management of our clients’ portfolios to act in a way that benefits J.P. Morgan. Conflicts will result, for example (to the extent the following activities are permitted in your account): (1) when J.P. Morgan invests in an investment product, such as a mutual fund, structured product, separately managed account or hedge fund issued or managed by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or an affiliate, such as J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc.; (2) when a J.P. Morgan entity obtains services, including trade execution and trade clearing, from an affiliate; (3) when J.P. Morgan receives payment as a result of purchasing an investment product for a client’s account; or (4) when J.P. Morgan receives payment for providing services (including shareholder servicing, recordkeeping or custody) with respect to investment products purchased for a client’s portfolio. Other conflicts will result because of relationships that J.P. Morgan has with other clients or when J.P. Morgan acts for its own account.

Investment strategies are selected from both J.P. Morgan and third-party asset managers and are subject to a review process by our manager research teams. From this pool of strategies, our portfolio construction teams select those strategies we believe fit our asset allocation goals and forward-looking views in order to meet the portfolio's investment objective.

As a general matter, we prefer J.P. Morgan managed strategies. We expect the proportion of J.P. Morgan managed strategies will be high (in fact, up to 100 percent) in strategies such as, for example, cash and high-quality fixed income, subject to applicable law and any account-specific considerations.

While our internally managed strategies generally align well with our forward-looking views, and we are familiar with the investment processes as well as the risk and compliance philosophy of the firm, it is important to note that J.P. Morgan receives more overall fees when internally managed strategies are included. We offer the option of choosing to exclude J.P. Morgan managed strategies (other than cash and liquidity products) in certain portfolios.

The Six Circles Funds are U.S.-registered mutual funds managed by J.P. Morgan and sub-advised by third parties. Although considered internally managed strategies, JPMC does not retain a fee for fund management or other fund services.
