I have been writing for a long time about following the money as it relates to climate change. More recently I’ve been revealing how more and more finance entities have been committing to begin redirecting their capital away from fossil fuel projects and into renewable energy assets. This started with a trickle and becoming a torrent. When this started it was tentative and…
As I have been writing about for years and in many of my most recent articles, follow the money. Fossil fuels are being abandon like a hot potato. As predicted, costs of renewables have dropped more than dramatically. In 10 years solar has gone from $300 a megawatt hour to $38 in China today. And wind in the last 10 years…
In case you haven’t been paying attention, it’s becoming more and more clear that the horse is out of the barn: we’ve passed a tipping point. When you can read this in Forbes, things have changed. “After all the suffering of the pandemic, let’s make investments that will preserve life as we know in this planet and strengthen our…
I am staying on the finances of climate change. The last post related to the IMF (International Monetary Fund) warning that: “nations must do all they can to promote a recovery that also fights against the climate-change crisis” IMF Gets On Board More and more pressure is coming to bear on investors to take into consideration the risk of directing capital…
Short but sweet today. Following up on my last two messages to you to reveal the widening acceptance and understanding that we should learn and take advantage of our current circumstances regarding the COVID – 19 pandemic as relates to climate chaos. The two concepts to which I am referring are: 1. There is a connection from this pandemic to…
Before I start my overview of the attached article I want to address the feedback I received from many of you about my format. Thanks to all of you who responded. The first point was that almost everyone liked it and encouraged me not to change it. That said, there was some confusion on the overall scheme. So let me try to…
I have been warning of the impending collapse of the fossil fuel business especially oil. And, with it the devaluation of value of the oil companies’ stock price. I expected it to happen quickly when it occurred but I certainly didn’t expect it to happen due to a global pandemic. But here we are. As predicted, it ain’t pretty. And after we get past…
Several of my recent posts have been focused mostly on renewable energy. Today, I am going back to what we can expect from a warming climate and the implications thereof. As readers you know that I have been preaching about how projections of the horrid outcomes of warming the atmosphere of our planet will be much worse and come faster than the “experts”…
In light of the health crisis we are all now experiencing it feels disjointed to be focusing on anything else. So far I, Debbie and the rest of my immediate family are all feeling good and hunkered down in isolation and working from home. I certainly hope that you are doing as well also and imploring everyone you can influence…
I’ve over the years, and recently also, mentioned positive feedback loops. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_feedback) Certainly the melting of the Arctic, Antarctic and Greenland ice is one that is very frightening. But there is another one that has been extremely worrisome to me and which has gotten little public attention but could be the dagger in the heart to being able to stop runaway climate…
