@swardley quite. It's not new news. It's been what a huge number of people have been saying *continuously* for 30 years.

The worst thing about this, is the "solution" will be the same as that proposed over 30+ years ago ... finding the right metrics and price signals. The realisation that our market system is incompatible with sustainable life will only come far too late.

1/ The penny is finally starting to drop that economists have catastrophicly underestimated the risk from #ClimateBreakdown. Here's a🧵 of the latest reports that those working in finance urgently need to catch up on... Starting with @ChathamHouse: chathamhouse.org/2023/07/climat…

@OliBarrett @thetimes This ridiculous click-bait-based article should be sent straight into the textbooks of how to take a position of privilege and abuse it.

On this, I am at odds with @thetimes and (in their view), "the public". I DO want companies (including banks) to see themselves as engines of social change. And yes, I want a warm, inclusive, diverse bank too. The social responsibility of business is more than simply "business".

Back in 2003, Andy Marshall at the Pentagon asked us at Global Business Network to develop some scenarios around "Abrupt climate change." (This was when the Bush administration was suppressing climate research.) We focused on what happens when the Gulf Stream shuts down.

In what may be one of my last messages here (given the sheer idiocy of the guy who owns it) I reflect that the vast majority of my messages have been about our climate emergency. And, today, this. The time for theory is over. theguardian.com/environment/20…

@peterkwells @psd I think is a really material issue today. So much pattern recognition from previous decades. Wonder if @NeelieKroesEU needs to be invoked again to rattle the cage on completely unacceptable monopoly behaviours *again*

@agentGav @psd I spent c.0.5 day this week getting two well-formatted Google docs to display/print well-formatted in Microsoft because a) production team in a UK public sector org want Microsoft, b) Google/Microsoft don't play nicely on standards, & c) Microsoft seems to no longer be WYSIWYG
