Sustainability is not typically part of a bank's vocabulary.
But there are terms a bank can understand : systemic risk for the economy, the prospect of fossil fuel investments becoming stranded assets, negative effect on public relation and how it can be a competitive disadvantage if a bank do not attract customers who value human life.
Yes, banks should worry about all these risks. Climate change is a large systematic risk so it make sense to worry about it as well.
Meanwhile, megabanks like Wells Fargo are backsliding on their previous climate pledges and exiting from the Net-Zero Banking Alliance, a United Nations-backed group that encouraged members to slash their emissions in line with the Paris Agreement.
Multiple US banks and entities are backtracking their goals of lowering emissions, wich is the main solution to limit the risks of climate change.
They're setting themselves up, and us collectively, for higher risks of flood, drought, sea rise, ...
Musk and Trump are creating the bloodily moronic situation in which the US will have to fight wars to get the things that, just a few weeks ago, were there for the asking. And, of course, wars rarely turn out the way one expects.
Master negotiators! (not)
I can't imagine how it must feel for diplomats and other public servants who worked to maintain those alliances, to see them destroyed by Putin's useful idiots.
Nous allons enfin en finir avec l’impunité des délinquants
Marine Le Pen
Tout à fait d'accord, il ya eut du laisser-aller vu toutes les affaire politicos-judiciaires qui éclatent.
Content pour une fois de voir une mesure du programme de Le Pen appliquée.
Kim Jong-un et Sauron ont ils également apporté leur soutien ?
This seems relevant: La Tesla du démon (fr), a song parody by a french musicial and a belgian comedian.

Cybernews has contacted M.A.D Mobile Apps Developers Limited for official comment, but a response has yet to be received.
I hope Cybernews reported the apps to the relevant app store, including a detailed report.
Developpers may ignore random researchers' email, but probably wouldn't ignore an app store that has the ability remove or unlist apps from its store.
This is a good reason to ban hard to recycle, non-dissolvable plastics.
Thanks.
The Irish Mirror does describe this as a rumour. The rumours about health issues are all over the place: thyroid cancer, Parkinson's disease, incontinence, cardiac arrest...
I don't wish him well, but either it's a bunch of random rumours, or he's very seriously I'll.
Do wear special solar googles to protect your eyes while watching the solar eclipse.
They cost 2-3 EUR, I bought one at my local optician. Some pharmacist sell them as well.
Requiring a custom installation image!?
This means Microsoft is pushing less tech-savy users to download unofficial images, by removing a basic widely used feature from its official images.
What could possibly go wrong?
How does one report spam received from another user in private messages?
The screenshot shows the user is registered at Lemmy.cat. I received those messages twice, each time from a different user/instance mentionning the "fediverse chick", and it's coming out of the blue from someone I don't know.
I already blocked the user. But it's not clear if blocking also act as report mechanism.
Yes, and that's how it should be if a politician of any party is convicted for serious offense, eg violence or hatred. Laws should apply equally to all.
Which means such law should be carefully crafted to prevent its abuse for partisan purpose, supressing the opposition, etc.
For instance making it a judicial process, not an arbitrary administrative/executive decision. Restricting this to specific well-defined offenses. Making it a time-limited ban, not a lifetime ban.
