The dilemma of investing in fossil fuels

16 January 2024

The University of St Andrews Business School's Dr Ralitza Nikolaeva, with colleagues Sean Field and Aliya Tskhay from the University's Centre for Energy Ethics, has an article published today (16 January 2024) in the journal Management Decision.

“The dilemma of decarbonising a world that needs more and more energy is particularly acute for the people who supply energy – the oil and gas industry and finance. What is the ethical lens in these industries? Time to talk about it.”
