![]() When the fund announced this year that they plan to allocate 2% of the fund ( about $28 billion) to renewable energy investments, that bodes well for Aker Horizons, a renewable energy holding company that Aker ASA is invested in. With assets totaling $1.3 trillion, the 5.3 million inhabitants of Norway own about a 1.4% stake in all the world’s public listed companies. Does $91 billion sound like a big number? That’s just how much Norway’s fund earned in 2020. Norway’s sovereign wealth fund, which holds the world’s biggest stock portfolio, is the largest sovereign wealth fund controlled by a country on behalf of its citizens. ![]() The “curse of oil” seen in places like Azerbaijan and Saudi Arabia was never a problem for Norway. Their Norwegian pedigree means they’re coming from a place that’s extremely environmentally aware, and more importantly, flush with oil cash that’s being put to good use. Credit: Aker ASA Annual ReportĪker Carbon Capture may be an independently traded company, but they come to the table with lots of industry contacts they can leverage to make things happen. This summer marks one year since Aker’s entry into the renewable energy space with the establishment of Aker Offshore Wind, Aker Carbon Capture and Aker Horizons. That’s why we were quite surprised when a reader told us about Aker Carbon Capture, a publicly traded carbon capture stock that’s listed in the United States as an ADR under the ticker AKCCF, and on the Oslo Stock Exchange under the ticker ACC.OL. But when the world’s richest man offers a $100 million prize for the best carbon capture technology, it implies what we have today isn’t up to snuff.īecause it’s early days for carbon capture technology, there are not very many publicly traded carbon capture stocks. ![]() Earlier this year, we wrote a piece titled When Will Carbon Capture Tech Become Economically Viable? in which we looked at even more startups trying to make carbon capture profitable. Companies are trying to turn carbon into chemicals, plastics, and even food, but these businesses will only scale if they can operate profitably. Capturing carbon and then turning it into products isn’t a novel idea. That’s hardly an economically viable business. The Business of Capturing CarbonĪ few years ago we asked the question, How Can We Reduce Carbon Dioxide in the Atmosphere? In that article, we looked at a company called Climeworks which was removing carbon for $100-per-ton and selling it for $26 a ton. We’re looking for an enterprise that can profitably capture carbon and show us a worthwhile ROI. The alternative is to subsidize carbon capture, but that’s not going to scale, nor will it show green tech investors a return on their investment. The amount of carbon that needs to be reduced is so massive that such a lofty goal will only be accomplished if the end solution can generate a profit for investors. You will not be able to capture carbon at scale, and at a sustainable rate, unless you can do so profitably. But here’s something both camps need to consider. The second camp believes that because so much money is being thrown at solutions to reduce carbon, you can’t help but make money by investing in carbon capture technologies. The first camp believes that reducing carbon will save the planet, and therefore we must pursue this mission at all costs, profits be damned. If you’re looking for a carbon capture stock, you might pitch your tent in one of two camps.

![]() My friend Captain Escalante Tuttle, a very discerning diner, warned me about jumping to conclusions: “ At the risk of being flogged on this blog, I actually like Pueblo Chile. I figured Colorado Governor Jared Polis’s recent contention that Pueblo chile is “the best in the world” and declaring New Mexico chile “inferior” was just political posturing and bluster laced with bovine-excrement. I had fully expected to dismiss Pueblo green chile as a vile pretender…a parody of brown glop to be taken as seriously as salsa made in New York City. You’ll often find chile with two of the three elements, usually piquancy and a fire-roasted flavor, but sometimes the chile is so innocuous you have to wonder if it’s “wussified” so as not to offend anyone. Second, it’s been my experience over the past several years that New Mexico’s green chile doesn’t always have all three elements I consider essential to enjoyment of chile: piquancy, a fire-roasted flavor and sweet, fruity notes. I certainly haven’t tried nearly as much green chile in Colorado as I have in New Mexico. First is a very small sample size of Pueblo chile–two items at one restaurant. My “heretical declaration” is based on two factors. Before you condemn me to an eternity of wailing, gnashing of teeth and non-stop watching of The View, hear me out. “ Next you’re going to tell us the Denver Broncos, not the Dallas Cowboys, are America’s team. That chile, from Pueblo, Colorado isn’t just an “it’ll do” substitute, but a bona fide equal (or superior) to much of the green chile grown in Hatch, Chimayo, Lemitar, Deming, Jarales and any number of other purveyors of chile fecundity across New Mexico. The deepest circle of Hell, where Satan resides, is reserved for history’s worst traitors–Judas Iscariot, Brutus, Cassius…and maybe a certain New Mexico food blogger who not only admits there is wonderful green chile to be found outside the paradise that is the Land of Enchantment he believes it’s possibly just as good, even better than some New Mexico chile. ![]() Their path takes them through the nine circles of Hell where they witness the punishments suffered for all eternity by the souls of deceased sinners.

Arriving from her home in Boulder, Colorado, Wiggins was already committed to a long-term investigation that she termed Searching Selves, a conceptual process whereby she would delve into the artistic practices of other artists. ![]() The collaboration between Wiggins and photographer Luís Filipe Branco began in 2015 when Wiggins entered a residency at the rural OBRAS Foundation near Evoramonte in Portugal. Amid lush fields and ancient cork trees, an artisanal past comes forward in idyllic even aggressive presentations of womanhood in nature. Yet, it is in the broader subjects of landscape and nature that the narrative splits from that preconception. ![]() So, when we look at the Wiggins/Branco photographs what are we to look for? The subject, easily identified as the artist Wiggins, is a woman of a certain age. It is clear that making artistic work is far from the immediacy of a snapshot. We are overburdened with sorting not only pictures but their implied histories and meanings. Today, the general nature of self-representation has become complicated by the full-throttle world of image manufacturing and collection-Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, news cycles. Sherry Wiggins and Luís Branco’s collaborative project The Mirror Between Us / O Espelho Entre N ó s presents us with questions about female agency in such reality creation. As Susan Sontag wrote in On Photography, the camera allows one to lay claim to another reality. A photograph multiplies the self into another dimension, a rotation in the vector of two objects to create a mirror image of the other. Mere scattered light and atoms make photographs. “The camera is the ideal arm of consciousness.” -Susan Sontag Cydney Payton wrote the essay for the exhibit, originally scheduled for 2020 and rescheduled for 2022 due to the covid pandemic. This exhibition was curated by Carolien van der Laan and Ludger van der Eerden, founders of the OBRAS Foundation in Evoramonte, Portugal. The Venus di Milo, portrait of the goddess of love and sensuality and symbol of antique beauty, is undoubtedly one of the most celebrated of these.The Mirror Between Us, an exhibition of performative photographs by Sherry Wiggins and Luis Filipe Branco, will be installed at the Igreja de Sao Vicente in Evora, Portugal, April 16- June 4, 2022. It originally stood in the temple dedicated to the Goddess in Cnidus, an ancient city in Asia Minor, and was subsequently used as a model for the numerous studies of the goddess created during the Hellenistic Period. The first nude portrayal of the Goddess Aphrodite would appear to be the Cnidian Aphrodite which was carved in marble by Praxilites in 360 BCE. The statue was made in two separate parts and the fluted drapery serves to hide the joint between the blocks of marble. The work feels smooth and compact to the touch and the intricate folds of the wrapped drapery at the hips can be clearly perceived. Her hair is tied up with a ribbon and is finely modelled in a naturalistic, descriptive manner, as can be seen in the lock which has come loose from the ribbon and is hanging down on her neck. Her aloof composure is that of a goddess and is underlined by her expressionless face – a typical characteristic of the Classical period. Her head is turned to her left, and its fine oval face is as typically Greek as her long straight nose. Her weight is supported by her straight right leg, while her left leg is set slightly forward with the knee bent and turned inwards, suggesting modesty. Her right shoulder is lower and further forward than the other, creating a shoulder line which parallels the diagonal of the gathered top of the drapery at her hips. Her posture is sinuous, the entire figure forming a sort of S. Her torso is naked but her lower body is swathed in a heavy, richly folded garment. Just over 2 metres tall, the goddess is portrayed in a standing position. The first, plaster, copy belongs to the Museo Omero while the second, in resin, is on loan for use from the Louvre, which houses the original. We have two copies on show, each taken from a true cast. This depiction of the goddess, which has become an icon of female beauty, would appear to be a copy of a lost sculpture by Lysippos. The celebrated Venus de Milo, found on the island of Milos in 1820, was carved circa 130 BCE. Translation by William Ellery Leonard, Perseus Digital Library).
