Please do NOT further politicize this issue by injecting it further into our financial markets. I have been \"following the science\" and the debate surrounding it for almost 30 years now and I am increasingly frustrated by the corruption of science as I knew it while growing up. There are as many credible scientists who do NOT concur with \"the consensus\" as there are climate alarmists. We have endured countless dire predictions of Earth's soon demise for the last thirty years, NONE of which have come close to being accurate. The fact of the matter is, our economies have boomed during this rise in CO2, with more abundant food, reduced rates of hunger, lower rates of poverty and far fewer severe weather events...including many fewer deaths due to weather. Following the alarmists predictions will reverse all of those positive trends rapidly and with devastating consequences. Please do not be part of that carnage by engaging in this ESG nonsense.
