Surprising but true: sovereign funds from oil-rich nations could play a major role in driving the green transition. 🌍💡 #SustainableFinance #GreenTransition #RenewableEnergy #ClimateAction #ESG www.financemiddleeast.com/opinion/sove...

#academictwitter has now moved to @bsky.app. But let's hope that Bluesky doesn't become too much of a "safe space". Academics should be comfortable with dissenting ideas, including hearing from people they may find politically detestable. Academics shouldn't be so fragile.

I guess I need to start interacting on @bsky.app. Real human beings follow me! On the other platform, the only people that seem to follow me are bots or those selling a certain service.

Everyone like free things. You can read one of my recent books without paying anything. And you'll have a better understanding of sovereign wealth funds after, at least that's the idea. Enjoy! library.oapen.org/bitstream/ha...
