While Climate Summit COP27 Will Under-Deliver, The Market Shifts Towards Sustainability Will Accelerate
Background November 2022 was named the month of sustainability given that the COP27 Climate Summit is taking place during this time. These high-level meetings, however, will not produce any breakthrough given the global recession, high inflation, and geopolitical tensions due to Russia’s war in Ukraine. There will continue to be momentum towards the 2050 decarbonization targets, but we will fall short of concrete implementation of the climate commitments to keep the temperature increase to 1.5 C.

COP27 Climate Summit: Some Key Statistics on Risk and Investment Trends
As Egypt hosts the most important sustainability event of the year, COP27, the Middle Eastern country is pushing hard on making the summit about decarbonization implementation as opposed to climate commitments. However, given the weak global economy, high inflation, and geopolitical instability, we should not expect many breakthroughs coming out of this year's summit. The over 100 countries participating will be negotiating the establishment of the Damage and Loss Fund (a fund to finance damage and losses suffered by most vulnerable countries), as well as the $ 100 billion yearly investment commitment for developing countries to address their climate adaptation and mitigation priorities. Nobody expects much progress on either front given the limited political capital of the largest polluting countries as well as the weak budget space to fill the climate financing gap.

Millcreek Walk
The duo easy road walked the 5 miles in from snowbank, found site ninety nine early evening. Bivouac, simple, gear dropped-N- propped, day packs back to back, bedrolls out, pulled up close to the dakato fire they had dug. Dinner, MRE's pulled from each ruck. Water boiled over the smokeless fire poured first, into the pouches of the ever popular shake and squeeze lasagna, then splashed into the odd colored NASA engineered mix of sweetener, creamer, and "coffee". As they sporked, bite by bite, each red sauce drenched gluten morsel, the freinds chatted, buddy junk, occassionally sharing the chore of adding twigs and wrist sized chunks to the fire hole. They settled in water skins and extras zipped up with them, then watched each star pop alive first one by one, then by handful's to fill the nights deep blue dome with swirling moving pins of light, the spectacle kept them talking too late.
