www.theguardian.com/politics/202... “The Climate Change Committee’s most recent analysis puts the expected cost of achieving net zero by 2050 at about £110bn, or about £4bn a year – 0.2% of GDP.” The cost of climate breakdown is in the trillions.

A nice quote attributed by some to Maynard Keynes. Think AI while reading it: “Capitalism is the extraordinary belief that the nastiest of men for the nastiest of motives will somehow work together for the benefit of all"
