Impact of climate change on London's economy - summary slidesLondon Assembly
The London Assembly Economy Committee has investigated the impact of climate change on London’s economy and has published a summary of views and information that assesses whether the Mayor and the London Enterprise Panel (LEP) are doing enough to support London’s businesses face the challenges and opportunities ahead.
A cockamamie report encouraging investors to divest from fossil fuels "before it's too late" to do so. The entire thrust of the argument is based on the incorrect theory that mankind is causing the earth to warm catastrophically. With reports this dumb from HSBC, you have to wonder why anyone does business with them!
Blackrock advises - governments, stakeholders, economists increasingly see higher carbon prices as a cost-effective way to achieve emissions reductions. Just 80 companies are responsible for 50 pc of global emissions by listed companies.

Unburnable Carbon - Are the world's financial markets carrying a carbon bubble?Marcellus Drilling News
A "report" issued by the global warming true believers at the Carbon Tracker Institute. The report makes the false claim that fossil fuel companies are vastly overvalued because the assets they own, carbon in the ground, will never get used because so-called renewable sources are coming on strong and will replace those sources. The point they try to make is that oil and gas companies are essentially worthless and investors should stay away from them. What they call a "carbon bubble." Horse manure.

Extra moorings and facilities are needed on London’s waterways to help address hotspots of overcrowding as increasing numbers of Londoners are turning to living on the water, our new report says. With house prices and rents rising to record levels in London, the report says more people are choosing to live on a boat as a more affordable option. Yet, the number of moorings and facilities, such as water supply and waste disposal, has not increased in line with demand. We set out a number of recommendations that we think can help address the overcrowding and improve relations between the different people who use the waterways.

A pi merchant is someone who buys pi coins from miners and resell to these crypto whales and holders of pi..
This is because pi network is not doing any pre-sale. The only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners and pi merchants stands in between the miners and the exchanges.
How can I sell my pi coins?
Selling pi coins is really easy, but first you need to migrate to mainnet wallet before you can do that. I will leave the what'sapp contact of my personal pi merchant to trade with.

Pension Fund Authority should
explore options for managed
