It emphasizes that while long-term transitions will take decades due to investment cycles and systemic complexity, immediate action is required to avoid locking in polluting assets. The authors argue that investors can drive impact through active engagement with value chains and by pressuring companies to commit to fundamental business model shifts rather than simple portfolio reallocation.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"sei-002143#summary","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},"key_insights":[{"text":"None of the four examined sectors—steel, cement, agricultural commodities, and oil and gas—have seriously begun the disruptive changes necessary to align with Paris Agreement targets.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"sei-002143#insight-1","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"Steel and cement production must reduce global emissions by more than 90% between 2019 and 2050 to be compatible with a 50% probability of limiting global warming to 1.5°C.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"sei-002143#insight-2","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"For the steel sector, the most promising pathway to zero emissions involves a shift from blast furnace-basic oxygen furnace (BF-BOF) processes to hydrogen-based direct reduction (H-DRI) and electric arc furnaces (EAF).","ai_generated":true,"unit":"sei-002143#insight-3","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"Achieving net-zero in the cement sector is likely impossible without carbon capture and storage (CCS), which is expected to potentially double production costs.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"sei-002143#insight-4","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"Food systems are responsible for approximately one-third of global greenhouse gas emissions (about 18 Gt CO2e per year), with land use and land use change (LULUC) and production practices accounting for nearly 75% of these emissions.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"sei-002143#insight-5","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"Agricultural decarbonisation is hindered by the fact that increasing yields to meet rising demand often leads to higher emissions from fertiliser use and fossil fuel dependence.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"sei-002143#insight-6","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"To align with a 1.5°C pathway, global oil production would need to decline by 4% annually and gas by 3% annually from 2020 to 2030, contrasting with current government plans that imply 2% annual growth for both.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"sei-002143#insight-7","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"No large oil and gas companies reviewed by Oil Change International or the World Benchmarking Alliance were found to be close to 1.5°C alignment, with many continuing to explore and approve new projects.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"sei-002143#insight-8","date_modified":"2026-10-23"},{"text":"There is a risk of 'leakage' in the oil and gas and agricultural sectors, where companies meet targets by selling polluting assets or shifting sourcing to other buyers rather than reducing overall emissions.","ai_generated":true,"unit":"sei-002143#insight-9","date_modified":"2026-10-23"}],"climate_tags":["Net-zero emissions","steel","cement","petroleum industry","carbon capture and storage","green hydrogen","deforestation","Climate-smart agriculture","nature-based solutions","methane emissions","climate finance","fossil-fuel divestment","circular economy"],"geography_discussed":["People's Republic of China","Sweden","Australia","Brazil","Norway"],"frame_perspective":[],"analysis_type":["sectoral assessment","policy analysis","investment strategy analysis"]}]}
