Let's be honest on transition plan

1. Energy transition requires a systemic change towards the way we operate and the way we do things. It is still at early stage and can be viewed like a start up. We are going down the path of unknown but shouldn’t be afraid of failure along the way, because that is how we will learn and get towards an inclusive decarbonised world.
2. The energy transition would have unintended consequences especially in the social part. It cannot take a communist or dictator approach. We should be transparent and brave to have these difficult conversations e.g. green industries would not create as many jobs as the ones lost from retiring older technology
3. Energy transition should also not be seen as colonial or another form of imperialism. Considering different country nuances is important and advocating scope 3 emissions of countries or energy usage/ GDP would yield very interesting discussions. We have to stop saying the south or the poor or emerging markets but look at energy transition from a global perspective
4. Stewardship and engagement is important but it shouldn't be about asking companies to cannibalise itself. It would be more effective to discuss how companies are meeting the energy transition demand, not over produced and how to produce their goods and services in the most sustainable manner. Success from tailing dams is one good example
5. One thing that all of us have the most control of is our savings, personal investment and savings. We should start aligning our own personal finances, our love ones and close friends towards this direction
