While reading The Ministry for the Future, I’m convinced that the finance sector can help solve the climate crisis. It even reminded me about the ideas presented in the Climate Shock.
The video in this blog post discussed why shifting away from investments that damage nature helps us achieve net zero and nature positive economy.
And as I was watching it (I hope you would too), I felt like Mary (from The Ministry for the Future) came to life when she said:
“Even if market and state were two parts of a single system, that single system was ruled by law; and the laws were made by the nation-states; they could therefore change the laws, that was sovereignty, that was where seigniorage and legitimacy and ultimately social trust and value resided. The market was constructed by, and parasitic on, that structure of laws.”
