    When you're talking about solving climate change and links it with risk and return, for-profit investment, these could eventually become an obstacle rather than a catalyst for the world's green campaign. According to the IMF definition, there are 152 developing countries with a current population of around 6.69 billion that is 85.33 percent of the world's population.

    We should make airplanes more fuel efficient, or go back to sailing ships for global transportation. 😊

    Lots of rhetoric with not much meaning. Planetary boundaries is a poor term.
