The Climate Summit COP 28 promises to be transformational
Before I left the World Bank in 2015, the Washington based organization organized an event called “Should the World Bank President be a Private Sector CEO?” While this panel generated a lot of animosity and anger, in May 2023, the World Bank chose a Wall Street CEO, Mr. Banga as the new President. It is becoming clearer that poverty reduction, and sustainable development need more private sector and capital markets expertise and tools. And the market is adjusting to this new reality. Similarly, global decarbonization and climate change adaptation, needs to be tackled from the source up with greater private sector leadership. The great work that International Financial Institutions have done together with civil society groups, needs support from oil and gas producers as they have the financial resources and now the market incentives to become part of the solution.

Reducing Waste Realistically
I have an idea, and not a lot of time to write it out, so I'm going to just shoot my shot. Americans can reduce waste if we stop using plastic containers and started using glass. I got this idea because in the height of inflation and rising grocery prices my roommate started buying milk from a dairy. The dairy sends us milk in glass bottles once a week, simultaneously picking up the empty bottles. It's saved us a lot of money at the grocery store, and a lot of hassle for me when I carry the groceries inside.

How the world is competing with skyscrapers
The first skyscraper was the 10-story Home Insurance Building in Chicago, which was constructed in 1885. At the time, it represented a revolution and marked the start of the skyscraper era. The building had a steel inner skeleton, which allowed the walls to be thinner and the entire structure to be higher than ever. It stood until 1931, when it was torn down to make way for the Bank of America, which still stands today.
