After quick reading @environmentca new Emissions Reduction Plan, two major (& predictable) blindspots have emerged. A short 🧵 #ERP #cdnpoli #climatecrisis 1/7

2/7 FINANCE: describes modest historical process, without providing any path forward for aligning financial regulations with #ParisAgreement for regulated finance institutions/crowns, mandatory #ClimateRisk disclosure, stronger capital adequacy requirements, mandate changes, etc

3/7 FINANCE: Under #SFAC, finance institutions are regulating themselves. Major Canadian #banks lobby against mandatory #climaterisk disclosure & are #greenwashing #sustainablefinance - major policy reforms are needed & are missing here. thenarwhal.ca/canada-big-5-b…

@IPCC_CH

As #UkraineRussiaWar continues, and @IPCC_CH publishes it latest #Climate report, we take a closer look at the energy policy measures Europeans can take to weaken both Putin and climate disruption.
Take a look at the most efficient measures we have found so far 👇
#Thread

First, #EnergySufficiency measures (in plain English: stop wasting energy) are by far the best. Quick to implement. Efficient. Cost-effective. They should become a national security priority and give ideas for people to tangibly #StandWithUkraine in those dark days.

Second, #EnergyEfficiency targeting oil/gas heating buildings is a must. It however takes time to be rolled-out to significantly impact our dependence. All the more reason to start now!

Citizen of the Future - A Blockchain Theory 🌎

@UtilityTheory

Want to be in the top 1%?

Find the blockchain projects 99% aren't looking at.

I've done 1000s of hours of research on some of the best projects and compiled them into educational threads for other citizens to research

Here are some of my deep dives🌊

--Thread of Threads--

My focus is on long-term utility blockchain/ DLT projects⛓

Not short-term meme coins

These threads will cover:

• CBDC's
• IoT + IoV
• Innovation
• Supply chain
• Data protection
• Paperless trade finance
• Cheap payment infrastructure
• Interoperability of DLT ledgers

1. A beginner's guide to understanding the difference between the terms cryptocurrencies and blockchain.

Citizens of the Future - A Blockchain Theory

@UtilityTheory

95% of people are chasing meme coins

But few are looking at one of the biggest long-term opportunities in crypto...

A deep dive into how $XRP is building a frictionless decentralized liquidity pool for the world 🌍

(Not financial advice)

/THREAD/

@dontapscott

1/ The problem:

“With today’s internet of information you can’t store, move, transact value without a powerful intermediary. And that’s what blockchains solve”

Quoted by @dontapscott a leader in the decentralized blockchain revolution

@dontapscott

@dontapscott 2/ Before blockchain

The internet had a problem with transferring $ value peer to peer

The only 2 options for sending money were:

1. Send $ using a cross border payment via bank transfers
2. Use a 3rd party and trust a stranger with private information

Lets dive into those👇

@Academie_be

🚨Thread alert🚨
I spent most of last year studying #sustainablefinance. The results are now out in a report for @Academie_be & SFPI-FPIM. Here's the gist (🧵, 1/n):

academieroyale.be/Academie/docum…

1) the philosopher's stone of sustainable finance is figuring out how to distinguish sustainable from non-sustainable investments. (2/n)

If you get that distinction right, you can do anything: labels/standards, penalising/supporting factors, subsidies/taxes, mandatory portfolio allocations, even direct public investment, etc. You'd have a guidance system, a GPS, to steer all the other tools. (3/n)

@EU_Finance

(Thread!) @EU_Finance has published the proposal to reform legislation on companies’ sustainability reporting. These changes are key to achieve objectives set in #GreenDeal & the #sustainablefinance agenda. #CSRD
NGOs joint reaction: bit.ly/3xfARpO
Highlights⬇️

➕Positive changes
- Scope: all large companies (private&listed)
- EU mandatory sustainability reporting standards (general&sector-specific)
- Clarification reporting areas, categories info & double materiality principle
- Report on transition plans in line w/ #ParisAgreement

❗️Gaps:
- Exclusion private SMEs, delay standards listed SMEs & exemption large companies part of corp.groups
- No specification essential aspects #humanrights & #supplychains reporting
- Target setting to be connected w/ double materiality & include info actions/results

We are creating a new Public & Third Sector Academy for #SustainableFinance @UniofOxford @TheSmithSchool. The P3S Academy will be a global centre for training focused on central & local govt, regulators, supervisors, central banks, multilaterals, NGOs, charities, and philanthropy

We are focused on delivering a high-quality introductory course in our first year. We have free places funded by philanthropy and hope to have more available soon. You can apply here: forms.office.com/Pages/Response…

We will prioritise the allocation of free places to current and future leaders working on COP26, the G7, and the G20, as well as those from developing countries. Please do share. More details of the P3S Academy, including planned future activities, available in due course.

@KQ_VanCity

Most Cdn business media coverage around Biden has focused on Keystone. But that misses major shifts taking place in US/globally on climate risk disclosure, which will have far bigger impacts on Cdn economy/regulatory regime than the fate of a single project (thread)

Canada has been slow walking the last few years when it comes to requirements on climate risk/corporate disclosure. Organizations continue to underestimate how quickly the landscape can shift. Consider what’s happened since Monday, following election being called for Biden.

NYT reports Biden administration preparing Day 1 executive order mandating public companies to disclose on climate risk nytimes.com/2020/11/08/cli…

1/ With financial innovations such as #sustainablefinance and #impactinvesting increasingly viewed as key to the solution of current social and environmental crises, let’s take a look at how we got here, what might be problematic about that and what to do about it. 👇

2/ This is a thread about the empirical part of my book that traces the history of #socinv in the UK. I’ll leave the theoretical argument based on Fligstein & McAdam’s strategic action field theory & pragmatist action theory for another time.
springer.com/gp/book/978303…

3/ Financial innovations such as #impinv or #socinv mean that firms succeed to make money from financial intermediation where they haven’t done before. To do so, these firms have to make others participate: investees wanting finance, gov to regulate (and often subsidize), etc.
