The concepts of a ‘carbon bubble’ and ‘stranded assets’ may seem devilishly complex even for Cityย slickers.

But the non-profit financial think tank Carbon Tracker has today released a video explaining the risks faced by investors in a way that a particularly astute child might wellย understand.

The film, Fossil Fuel: A Risky Business, was released on YouTube with the following statement: โ€œThe fossil fuel industry is inflating a ‘carbon bubbleโ€™ based on risky demand and priceย assumptions.

โ€œAlready under current climate policy settings, companies risk wasting over $1 trillion over the nextย decade.ย 

โ€œIf the policy settings are ratcheted up โ€Žto reflect a two-degrees target then the amount at risk rise dramatically to $20 trillion plus.ย Did you know that your money could be at riskย too?โ€

We can only assume the production was made with recycledย paper.ย
