SCG showcases 4P model through Saraburi Sandbox on the global stage
SCG presented its Public-Private-People Partnership (4P) model and its Area-based Approach through the case study of the Saraburi Sandbox on two major stages: GCNT EXPO 2026, under the theme "From SHOCK to SHIFT – Thailand's Sustainable Transition in a Fractured World," and a panel discussion at The Bangkok Business Summit 2026: Reinvent Thailand, Resilient ASEAN. Thammasak Sethaudom, President and CEO of SCG, said that SCG began its transition to a low-carbon economy by tackling carbon reduction in its cement business, an industry that is hard to decarbonize. The company therefore developed technologies in its production processes, such as replacing nearly 50% of coal with biomass fuels and lowering production temperatures, while maintaining product efficiency, strength, and durability. SCG expanded its collaboration from the business level to the industry level through the Thai Cement Manufacturers Association, or TCMA, together with the Saraburi Provincial Industrial Council and Saraburi Province, to develop the Saraburi Sandbox as a model low-carbon city area, covering waste management, the use of agricultural residues, expansion of green spaces, and promotion of eco-tourism. The Saraburi Sandbox has gained global recognition, having been selected to join the World Economic Forum's Transitioning Industrial Clusters Initiative and featured as an ASEAN case study in the WEF White Paper 2026, while also expanding cooperation with Princeton University, the GCCA, and UNIDO on energy transition, technology, and green finance. Thammasak said the next goal is to apply the lessons from the Saraburi Sandbox's 4P model to suit the context of each area, in order to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy nationwide.
Phiphat orders urgent control of Rama 3 oil spill, approves three-pronged water pollution management plan
Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Transport, said he has instructed the Marine Department and related agencies to integrate their work closely to speed up control of the oil spill situation in the Rama 3 area, contain its spread, and remove the oil as quickly as possible in order to reduce the impact on the public and prevent pollution from affecting water sources and the Chao Phraya River. If anyone witnesses an unsafe incident on the water, they can report it to the Marine Department hotline 1199 around the clock. Meanwhile, yesterday, September 9, the first meeting this year of the Committee on Water Pollution Management from Oil and Chemicals approved a policy and plan for managing water pollution caused by oil and chemicals, along with three key action plans: a water pollution prevention plan, a water pollution cleanup plan, and an environmental rehabilitation plan, to serve as a single standard framework for preventing, monitoring, responding to, and recovering from the effects of oil and chemicals nationwide. The meeting also set criteria for assessing the costs of cleaning up oil and chemical spills, as well as for assessing environmental damage, so that there is a clear standard for taking action against polluters.

J.P. Morgan Rebrands Campbell Global to J.P. Morgan Natural Capital
J.P. Morgan Asset Management has announced the rebrand of Campbell Global, its forestland and nature-based asset investment manager, to J.P. Morgan Natural Capital, reflecting the business's evolution and the growing importance of nature-based assets in institutional portfolios. The platform, acquired five years ago, now manages over 1.5 million acres globally and oversees approximately $11 billion in assets under supervision as of December 31, 2025, with about 150 employees across 15 U.S. states, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and Latin America. The rebrand builds on Campbell Global's four-decade legacy in sustainable timberland investing while expanding into land, carbon, biodiversity, and other nature-related opportunities. CEO Angie Davis said the new name reflects the direction the asset class is moving, and Jed Laskowitz, Global Head of Private Markets, noted accelerating institutional demand for nature-based and climate solutions. The platform also closed its Forest & Climate Solutions Fund II in March 2025, raising $1.5 billion, the industry's largest forestry fund to date, with total capital raised for the strategy reaching $2.3 billion including separate accounts.
