Woodside fights historic investor demand for Paris-alignment

30 April 2020

30 April 2020

A record-breaking 50% of Woodside Petroleum’s investors today voted in favour of a shareholder proposal calling on the company to align with the Paris climate goals.

This is an incredible result, considering the Woodside board’s vehement opposition to the resolution.

Coordinated by the Australasian Centre for Corporate Responsibility (ACCR), the resolution specifically asked Woodside to:

Set targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions across its entire value chain, consistent with the Paris climate goals;
Ensure any exploration and capital expenditure is consistent with Paris; and
Incentivise progress towards the targets.

Woodside’s refusal to adopt and support this proposal demonstrates the company has no interest in bringing its operations into line with a safe climate future.

As Chair Richard Goyder stressed a number of times, Woodside has no plans to transition away from producing dirty fossil fuels in favour of clean energy opportunities.

Clearly, this is a company that deserves no investment from the custodians of our money. Yet our banks and super f u nds continue to prop up Woodside’s climate-wrecking business model.

I am writing to lodge a formal complaint about my super being invested in companies actively undermining efforts to avoid runaway climate change (see: marketforces.org.au/outofline). I do not want my retirement savings funding their destructive activities. It is terrible that you do not disclose investment holdings to members. I would also like to raise this lack of disclosure as a complaint. I can only imagine the extent to which my super is invested in companies that are pursuing fossil fuel expansion and/or basing their business on a scenario that would doom the Paris Agreement to failure. For years, companies have been asked to disclose and manage their climate change risks, yet in spite of increasing calls to action from regulators and investors, these companies have continued to base their future business prospects on scenarios that deliver catastrophic climate change. There is no justification for attempting to engage these companies any further. As my super fund, you have a duty to act in my best interests. Using my money to fund climate destruction is out of line with that duty. Other super funds have taken the pragmatic step of excluding investments in certain companies whose actions are incompatible with the goals of the Paris Agreement. I ask that you do the same, and announce this decision publicly. Please respond within 14 days, detailing your plans to sell all holdings in companies that are actively undermining efforts to hold global warming to 1.5°C. Sincerely

I am writing to lodge a formal complaint about my super being invested in companies actively undermining efforts to avoid runaway climate change (see: marketforces.org.au/outofline). I do not want my retirement savings funding their destructive activities. I understand at least 6% of the AMP Balanced Growth option's ASX 300 investments is in companies that are pursuing fossil fuel expansion and/or basing their business on a scenario that would doom the Paris Agreement to failure. Given your limited holdings disclosure, which I would also like to complain about, I assume there is further investment in these companies hidden from members.

For years companies have been asked to disclose and manage their climate change risks, yet in spite of increasing calls to action from regulators and investors, these companies have continued to base their future business prospects on scenarios that deliver catastrophic climate change. There is no justification for attempting to engage these companies any further. As my super fund, you have a duty to act in my best interests. Using my money to fund climate destruction is out of line with that duty. I am grateful that LGS has at least taken an initial step by excluding most thermal coal investments. But years have passed since that decision. It is high time LGS upgraded its policy to exclude any investment in companies whose actions are incompatible with the goals of the Paris Agreement. Please respond within 14 days, detailing your plans to sell all holdings in companies that are actively undermining efforts to hold global warming to 1.5°C. Sincerely

AGM dominated by climate concerns

While the COVID-19 pandemic and oil price crash could have been expected to dominate today’s AGM, the vast majority of shareholder questions and concerns related to the next major crisis facing Woodside: climate change.

Woodside plans to expand gas production by a staggering 70% by 2028. Yet the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C warming limit requires gas use needs to fall by around 25% by 2030. To say Woodside’s plans are out of line with Paris is understating things in the extreme.

For example, the company’s massive Burrup Hub LNG expansion project would generate emissions equivalent to 35 coal fired power stations operating for the project’s entire proposed 50 year lifetime.

Carbon Tracker analysis shows 30-40% of Woodside’s planned spending out to 2030 would be wasted on stranded assets under the IEA’s Beyond 2 Degrees Scenario. Given that scenario ignores the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C goal, and relies on unproven carbon capture and storage, the potential risk under a truly Paris-aligned scenario would be even higher.

With the current challenges facing the oil and gas industry, many of Woodside’s growth projects are being revealed as not viable in a low demand scenario. This is exactly what can be expected in a Paris-aligned low carbon transition.

Yet Woodside is refusing to ensure shareholder capital is not wasted on projects that would be unviable under in a 1.5°C warming scenario.

Despite a record 50% of shareholders telling @WoodsideEnergy to bring itself into line with the Paris #climate goals, Chair Richard Goyder confirms the company has no plans to drop its massive gas expansion plans and transition to renewable opportunities @AustCCR @CleanStateWA pic.twitter.com/cJMHC3tBsy

Paris-alignment means winding down

While it’s pleasing to see investors calling on Woodside to align with Paris, there seems to be little understanding or acknowledgment that this would require Woodside to stop expanding its oil and gas production. Instead, it must wind down fossil fuel production in a manner consistent with a 1.5°C warming outcome.

Without a clear plan to conduct and manage this wind down, Woodside does not deserve any further investment support, especially from our super funds, which are required to act in the best interests of its members.
