In this special episode of the ESG Insider podcast, we sit down on the sidelines of CERAWeek with Sinead Kaufman, Chief Executive of Minerals at Rio Tinto, one of the world’s largest mining companies.
Rio Tinto was founded more than 150 years ago, and Sinead says the company is taking a long-term view in its approach to the energy transition, its engagement with local communities and its rising focus on nature.
"When we look forward, we want to be part of the solution for the next 150 years,” she says. “In two ways: How do we decarbonize our own business? And obviously there's a lot of technologies that are advancing really quickly to do that. And then the second is: How can we provide the materials that are needed for the energy transition?”
S&P Global's CERAWeek conference in Houston is one of the biggest events in the energy industry, convening global leaders to talk about energy and transition strategies.
