seem to be happening everywhere. Earlier in the summer, record breaking heat overtook parts of Europe and China. Then there were the Canadian forest fires that produced smoke that blanketed the U.S. More recently wildfires consumed parts of Hawaii and a few days ago, the first tropical storm landing in California since 1939 caused destructive mudslides and flooding.

Jonson believes investors should be looking for companies changing technology and products to address climate change and position themselves for a profitable future.
