AI is fuelling unprecedented growth in the tech sector—but what are the real world impacts, especially with energy (and water) hungry data centres expanding at a rapid pace?

In this podcast episode of The Green Dream, we speak with Luciano Lilloy and Miriam Benarey from Impax Asset Management, a global specialist fund manager focused on investing in the transition to a more sustainable economy.

We explore how AI intersects with sustainability, the opportunities it presents, and how to navigate this rapidly evolving space through an ethical investment lens.

How do we harness the power of AI for good?

Artificial intelligence stands at a crossroads: with regulation and ethical oversight it promises to transform society for the better; but left unchecked, it may enable profit-driven exploitation on a global scale.

The real question is not how powerful AI can become, but how can we harness this power to create positive impact. Few people can explain this precarious balance between exciting innovation and massive responsibility better than Dr Martin Dougiamas, the Perth-based founder of Moodle, the world’s most widely used open-source learning platform.

Recent investigations by The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age in their 'Blood Oil' series revealed that many Australian super funds have been indirectly linked to Russian-origin oil through infrastructure investments — even while branding themselves as ethical or sustainable.

These 'ESG-lite' strategies of large Australian Super funds often fail to account for full supply chains — including fuel terminals and pipelines — that are facilitating the movement and storage of refined Russian oil.

The result? Super fund members’ money is unknowingly helping finance the Russian war against Ukraine.

If you want your retirement savings to genuinely reflect your values, choose a Super fund — and an Adviser — who applies robust ESG principles, not just marketing claims.
