guilty of manslaughter come overturning his manslaughter conviction. the stories killed his girlfriend on valentine's day in 2013 and faces at least 15 years in prison. you can get more on the stories and others point for hours a day on bloomberg.com. tom: one of the hallmarks of what we are done over the years is try to find you the smartest people on the block. in climate change, one of those people is at the university of manchester. name anderson is not a known well in the united states, but he is iconic within the united kingdom are trying to get out front with a rational science on climate change. he joins us now from paris. the fessler, we are thrilled to have you on the program. how close are we -- professor, we're thrilled to have you on the program. how close are we away from even what paris is talking about, which is a two degrees centigrade warming? towarde on the pathway the four degree c temperature,
6:33 am
but at the moment, we've only seen one degree c of warming but clear if we carry on as we are going, even with the voluntary submissions from the different countries to paris, we're headed toward a three or four degree c increase in temperature over the century. that would have devastating consequences for our planet. tom: are the many meetings among the 190 nations, are they jumpstarting some form of negotiation with people that flat out disagreed about climate change and global warming? do you see a sea change, no pun intended, in paris? there is a sea change, but nowhere near the level that would be required. i think what we're seeing now is a very wide acceptance of the science. we're not yet prepared to accept the scale of the challenge for us to keep our temperature rise increase degrees c over the century. we see a sea change in terms of
6:34 am
accepting the science, but not in terms of what it actually means for his as a global community in terms of reducing our emissions. caroline: what it means for the industries, coal, gas, oil, could forfeit 34 troy in dollars worth of revenues -- could forfeit $34 trillion worth of revenues. we're talking about carbon capture. you're saying this isn't the signs we should be using, we should stop using fossil fuels, not trying to rein in some of the emissions. >> carbon capture is that are then just using the fossil fuels without it, but even with it, we're still going to get a lot of carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels. we have to be clear, we need to get fossil fuels out of our engine system by around 2050 globally at the latest of we're going to hold with a reasonable chance of this two degrees c rise, which all of our leaders have signed up to. that is a huge challenge for the energy company. tom: i think back to 1957, not

that i'm old enough to remember was a dr.but there strangelove movie, professor, you put that into your writing on jury rigged engineering solutions. you make it clear, dr. schrage left want to get it done. -- dr. strangelove want to get it done. what is the applied science that will get us to a better world? think we have to be careful, science and engineering are going to solve the problems for us. i find that quite a sad statement to have to make. the first thing we have to do is dramatically reduce our energy consumption. those of us who are a high energy consumers. that gives us a longer window -- a longer time, a larger window. renewables, possibly nuclear, those sorts of things we need to be doing. tom: so you go to vienna with ryan chilcote this morning, leave from paris, what would you tell the opec leaders, what
6:36 am
would you tell saudi arabia about the new hydrocarbon world? , ithe new hydrocarbon world was a world of the 20th century. we are in the 21st century and we need to open our eyes to the challenges we are facing. if they want to remain as energy companies, energy countries, they need to find ways to make a rapid transition from the. fuels to a lower carbon future -- from the fossil fuels to the lower carbon future. this year made clear the subsidy to fossil feel companies will be the equivalent trillion this year alone , global subsidy, to the fossil fuel companies. caroline: are you positive, optimistic, about the fact that now china, the world's biggest polluter, seems to be hearing the call from the move to a cleaner climate and less emissions? >> china is really important in this.
6:37 am
china has been brought into climate change issues for a long time for but at the same time, it is a rapidly growing economy and all of us are dependent on the goods they produce. we buy lots of things from china. it is good have china on board, but i don't think china is yet prepared to accept the scale of changes that need to be made. having said that, they're going to peak their global emissions by 2030. if it could be five or six years earlier, that would be a move in the right direction. it is a step in right direction from what china is saying. tom: can a smart guy like you shift or amend or adjust the thinking of republican climate critics in the united states? is there any hope for that? for you just say, there is always going to be this difference of opinion? the little i know about the republican party, they are going to be real challenges in trying to collectively accept changes. the one bastion of not accepting
6:38 am
the basic science of climate change, and it is fairly basic. this science has been around for the last 200 years. is wellhink evolution understood by science, we should also think climate change is understood. some of the republican party don't like the idea of easily or climate science, either. i think they're going to be a real problem for us. tom: kevin anderson, thank you so much. on the paris talks and the science that is behind it. i cannot convey enough how a read of this 40 and 50 page powerpoint on some of the mathematics and dynamics, thermodynamics of what is going on with our atmosphere will make all the little bit smarter about this debate. virginie maisonneuve is with us on her france. what a moment for france. i was watching the president of the republic of france the other day going, i can't imagine what is 24 hours are like with all that he is dealing with. what do these meetings mean to the city of paris? >> the climate change meetings.
6:39 am
tom: the climate change meetings, the backdrop. >> identified that all of it has so gone forward is very good. tom: just doing it. >> absolutely. the key thing for me, and as you know, climate change has been a long-term theme of mine for many, many years in terms of influences, growth, and economy of less. it is really important, but really what we have to do is find a way to combine the long-term ambitions that climate change needs to have to be successful, to curtail climate change, and the short-term political -- you have touched on political issues as well in short-term political cycles because it is an economy of less. climate change is about consuming less, consuming better, being more efficient. our world is not used to an economy of less. i think that is a psychological shift that is very important. caroline: and the shift of an investor, get out of oil, is it now?
6:40 am
34 train dollars and 25 years will come out in terms of revenue. >> the way to look at oil, what is the carbon cost in terms of reserves that an oil company might have in the ground, and say, how do i put that into my valuation? and actually, if you look at it this way, the sector is not that cheap. tom: very good, virginie maisonneuve with us on france. we will be in paris tomorrow with a wonderful set of guests. we are thrilled to bring you a set of mayors as they will be meeting to discuss local efficiencies, including the mayor of rio de janeiro, scared -- scheduled also, jeffrey sachs. we're thrilled he will talk to us about the economics, the cost and benefit analysis of trying to get to less global warning. we will be in paris tomorrow. right now from london, this is "bloomberg surveillance." ♪
6:43 am
caroline: welcome back, this is "bloomberg surveillance." u.s.,reaking across coming off of yesterday's selloff. getting over what janet yellen said toward rate hikes for the future. first, let's get on to our bloomberg business flash. >> an hour from now, the european central bank is scheduled to announce his decision on interest rates. surely afterward, mario draghi is expected to unveil more steps to boost the economy. investors think they will cut by 10 basis points. deutsche bank is among the leading skeptics about the pound sterling. protecting it will fall 15% more by the end of next year.
6:44 am
that would put the pound at its lows level in 30 years. the pound was trading earlier at less than $1.50. cutting the credit ratings of a large u.s. banks from among those lowered one notch, jp morgan, goldman sachs, and bank of america. s&p links the dow grace to the prospect the government is less likely to divide -- provide aid in a crisis. that is our latest. tom: thank you so much. single best chart. you can see these at facebook on bloomberg television as well. i throw them out there as well. brian belski with us. we look at too big to bail. the fact of the matter is the of banks from the bottom outperform the broader s&p 500 as well. bail dotoo big to better in 2016? will.think they good morning, by the way. at the end of the day, we think we have a major shift coming
6:45 am
with respect to private client investors, some point, moving away from bonds and into stocks. that is a pretty profitable and longer-term fee-basin asset-based business for the banks. i think this downgrade of credit is "noise" that anything. the long-term viability and cash reserves and balance sheets of these banks have never been stronger. i think this is just headline noise. tom: you see it at line. our their boards of directors restricted in dividend growth and share buyback by the new regulation, the new dodd-frank of the new volcker rule? do you have a diminished view? >> we don't, tom. on a one-year go forward basis, lookly, the financials among the strongest with respect to dividend growth. but at the end of the day, where we're seeing were consistent dividend growth in terms of american sectors and industries
6:46 am
are really coming from technology, industrials, health care -- consumer areas. we think that is for all intents and purposes, a secular shift in america were companies are paying out dividends. in fact, dividend growth as a strategy, we continue to believe "bridge active equities" and in fact, we believe dividend growth should be part of the asset allocation side of the fixed income in question going forward. caroline: you just told me you are in day for the 15 city tour for the -- what is the main concern your hearing? >> the main concern, with a forecast that we're going to see a correction next year and nobody believes us. at the end of the day, people are still pretty defensive with respect as saying seeing a flat market next year, not really wanting to make the call. we think the fed has a ready made its decision and they're going to raise rates. that is a big change that investors have to deal with. we're getting a lot of pushback on we think the market is when
6:47 am
it hit a cycle high, cycle that started in 29 -- 2009, and then a correction and ultimately, a recovery. people are not on the same page with us because there been much more standoffish and very short-term oriented. >> what is the argument used to convince them? >> we think for the last 15 years, we ever aired an entire generation of investors that all they know is monetary policy drives stocks and quantitative easing. we think we -- we have three major changes in 2016. monetary policy. because of that, investment habits of strategy are changing. we have a presidential election. that is a lot of uncertainty to deal with. as we see the market, within between now and even your end, the next three weeks, rally higher because the majority of institutional investors underperforming this year, we will see that continue as everybody starts to believe their own you know what heading into the bid -- beginning of the year. we think the fed is priced to perfection and could have a misstep from here.
6:48 am
caroline: i want to just translate it back to the side of the atlantic. you have been talking about how the s&p downgrade is just noise when it comes to u.s. banks. how far behind you think a european banks are in terms of maybe appetite to start outperforming? >> issue we have had with europe, quite frankly, the reason why america has benefited from qe, we had a loss to get between 2000-2009 and we were able to apply change not only in the financials but across the majority of stocks industries and sectors. europe really hasn't demonstrated that. some certain banks have in europe, but we think it is in the early stages. as such, mario draghi has a big of him.b ahead we think the ecb and the recovery in europe will be a longer and slower than most people are anticipating. tom: brian belski with us. virginie maisonneuve, one hour from those important announcements from the ecb.

6:54 am
bull market since 2009 has been driven by the this tradition of cash, doesn't matter if it is sure buybacks or return on invested capital. we see going forward, 2016, specially 18 and 19, we see the possibility of corporate tax changes and repatriation of cash and driven toward on in the manufacturing renaissance will be the next big wave. tom: that will be interesting to see. virginie maisonneuve, talking about the corporate bonds, lisa abramowicz as well, $2 trillion of issuance. is there a bubble and corporate ons because every cfo has a gun to their head saying, issue debt? >> there is definite a lot. if you go to buybacks, think the other thing that is very important as a level of growth that we see around the world. companies will use their cash to buy back if they don't see growth. for me, it is understanding what our company is doing, are they investing in innovation? investing in the future?
6:55 am
the technology today that will have an impact in five years. tom: d.c. capex improving next year? >> i think overall, the capex will not move very much but i think it is the granularity, which companies investing in what. if we look at the internet applied to industrials come internet applied to financials, jeanette applied to consumers, -- internet applied to consumers, disruption and innovation. it is less about the total growth and how it is applied and which companies are investing today to win in five years time. that is what i'm interested. >> will that help them win or should they be focusing on internal organic growth? >> it depends on the industry you're in, the output gap. do you do the m&a to gain a talents,are, to gain gauge size of -- take gain size of market? back on the buyback came, i think what is also interesting
6:56 am
is to try to understand what is going to happen in europe will stop this has really been a big u.s. phenomenon, not so much in europe. tom: thank you so much, virginie maisonneuve with us, wonderful her respective. we will continue with brian belski on bloomberg radio and a bit. brian, wonderful to have you in new york this moment. coming up within the hour, the important ecb headlines. we will see those across the bloomberg terminal worldwide. mario draghi with those headlines, he and his team of ecb. in a press conference as well at 8:39. paris, france in laquan myself at the cup 21 summit. stay with us. ♪
