OM DENNE EPISODE
Season 4, Episode 5: Sean Penrith & Kerry Morrison Break Down the Santa Marta Conference
In this episode, Jay is joined by Gordian Knot Strategies CEO Sean Penrith and Director of Strategic Engagement Kerry Morrison to unpack the First International Conference on Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels, held in Santa Marta, Colombia in late April, and what it means for the future of climate and nature finance.
Sean and Kerry share what made Santa Marta genuinely different from a COP, what separates an investable national transition roadmap from an aspirational one, and why managed fossil decline should now be understood as a peace and stability asset class. They also dig into how Article 6 and the voluntary carbon market need to evolve, and why climate and nature finance are finally beginning to converge around place-based transition architecture.
The signal from Santa Marta is clear. The architecture still needs to be built. Give it a listen!
