Financial Markets and the Making of Climate Resilience

The year I turned 26, scientists measured atmospheric concentrations of Carbon at 400 ppm for the first time in recorded history. According to former NASA scientist James Hansen, “If humanity wishes to preserve a planet similar to that on which civilization developed and to which life on earth is adapted…CO2 will need to be reduced [to] at most 350 ppm.” So the story translates: the arctic is melting. Seas are rising. Disease. Drought. Wildfires. Resource Wars. All while our human family is projected to expand to 9 billion over the next couple of decades.
