(an experiments from the May workshop)

Experiment team: Andrew, Aniol, Giles, Sandy

Assumption: more transparency can lead to the behavioural change of companies, through multiple strategies (divestment, shareholder action campaigns, etc.)

Hypothesis: unreadable

Experiment (in 2 months) is a scoping strategy that will focus on testing if it is feasible to:
A) Develop a transparency record for marine industries
B) Identify the “value at risk” for marine industries from marine oceans deterioration

Focus on big multinational companies operating:

  • directly in the North Sea region (sea and coast): food (fisheries, aquaculture), energy, aggregates, tourism, shipping)
  • indirectly (focus on root causes, such as plastics)

Questions to answer in two months:

  1. Has anyone done this before? Is there any ongoing action?
    1. On transparency
    2. On “value at risk”
    3. Are there protocols that could apply to marine unreadable? Reporting.
  2. How would we go about delivering this project?
    • Identify key industries
    • Identify comparable objective and parameters - what information is available?
    • Identify what extra information is needed?

Actions by July 2015

What other transparency initiatives exist? What can we learn from them? Are there lessons on what works and what doesn’t, on the design of the initiatives etc. Find examples of transparency initiatives, citizen unreadable, other unreadable

Implementation
  • Giles circulates FFF work on North sea limits work
  • Group discussion on the 3rd of June to discuss environmental indicators by each sector (unreadable)
  • lessons other initiatives:
    • Sandy on climate and chemicals
    • Aniol: more initiatives
    • Heather: palm oil - give information to Aniol
    • will ask for ideas and initiatives that others the group know of before end of May
  • Share initiatives between the participants to analyse; discuss early July or end of June
