I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for any global financial & health consensus, but something I found remarkable in a logistical sense happened at the COP26 meeting in Glasgow. 400 private jets to fly the dignitaries in to discuss and lecture us on climate change. https://pagesix.com/2021/11/01/outrage- ... te-summit/
Nothing like leading by example...

Apparently Johnson was flying using “sustainable fuel.”

Haven’t read the airline fuel article, but did hear the one about Charles Windsor running his 1970 Aston Martin on wine from his vineyard

Well... that's alright then :whistle:
It's a wonderful thing about the human psyche how the 'right words,' pacify like a dummy to a child. Best I've ever heard was Clinton's use of the word "inappropriate," stunned the world into inaction, made Monica a little happier in a bad situation I suppose. In the political or financial spectrum when a criminal act is uncovered and proven on a major player, "I resign," seems to be the best use of the, "get out of jail free card."
Feathers & steel for fish, it's amazing what creatures will swallow if presented correctly.

As far as I can see one of the biggest changes we can make is to become vegetarian! Just don’t eat beans. :p

Belief in humans is a very interesting thing. Many appear to believe what they want to believe, while others seem to be totally controlled by beliefs put there by others.
