I’ve been hearing the phrase “climate finance” more and more frequently. My understanding is that ESG became a no-no word to Larry Fink of BlackRock and they have rebranded as “climate finance”.

Let’s make sure we keep our vigilance. Thank you for your reporting.

It seems even team MAHA might be infected with the allure of “climate finance”.

See Nicole Shannan’s project at Stanford outlining how the treasury (or the Fed) could issue a “climate coin” to quantitatively ease into high cost carbon sequestration projects (which would largely be carried out by large multinationals).

Also check out WEFs vision of putting all forests on the blockchain:

I think their vision is that private ownership of blockchained forests will increase carbon sequestration (and also make these tradeable assets, basically tokenizing wilderness acts as a form of quantitative easing by creating money out of nowhere which causes inflation for the rest of us without the accompanying productivity we would get from the market).

Let’s remember the important word in “Climate Finance” is not Climate. These are the robber barons and they will take every last inch.

Thanks again for your reporting!

And thank you for your contributions here. Yes, carbon credits are a scam available only to large corporate interests. The UN and WEF seek to control all land in the name of saving the world.

The absurdity of their arguments is embarrassing.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!
