Mark “financial regime change” Carney, former Governor of the Bank of England and now the United Nations Envoy for Climate Action and Finance, gave Bloomberg News a video interview on Sept. 23, in which he stated from the start that: 1) in the last 18 months we went from ¼ of countries who had committed to net-zero to presently ¾ of the world’s countries that have now made that commitment; 2) 3,000 companies all over the world now have net-zero commitments; and 3) financial firms, asset managers, etc.,controlling a total of $90 trillion in assets have committed to manage that money on behalf of net-zero policies.
