Sinopse

Carbon Offset Debate delves into the complexities of carbon offset programs, questioning their effectiveness as genuine climate change mitigation tools versus potential diversions. The book explores the history of carbon markets from the Kyoto Protocol onward, examining the economic principles, such as supply and demand for carbon credits, and regulatory frameworks that govern them. A key focus is on whether carbon accounting methodologies are robust enough to ensure real emissions reductions, and if offset projects deliver promised benefits without harming local communities. For instance, reforestation projects, while seemingly beneficial, must guarantee permanence to truly offset emissions.

 
The book progresses by first introducing fundamental concepts such as additionality, permanence, and leakage, then critically examining carbon credit calculation methodologies and governance structures. Socio-economic impacts on local communities are investigated, including land rights and benefit-sharing.

 
The book provides case studies and analysis of carbon market data, offering recommendations for policymakers and businesses. Ultimately, Carbon Offset Debate aims to provide a balanced perspective on contentious issues, helping readers navigate the carbon markets and make informed decisions about climate action and sustainability strategies.

The People Who Own the World -...

John Harpoon

Power has always been a driving force behind the world's greatest shifts, shaping nations, economies, and cultures. While political leaders and public figures often take the spotlight, true power often lies in the hands of those who operate behind the scenes. These individuals, families, and organizations wield influence not through democratic processes, but through wealth, strategic connections, and the ability to manipulate societal frameworks. Understanding this hidden power structure is crucial to grasping how the world truly functions. 
  
Wealth has long been a powerful tool for control, enabling elites to shape policies, industries, and even social norms. Financial empires built by powerful banking families, corporate giants, and investment firms have grown to dominate global economies. Their influence extends far beyond Wall Street or corporate boardrooms — it reaches into political systems, media narratives, and cultural trends. Those with the greatest financial resources have the capacity to mold the world to their advantage, often with little public awareness. 
  
Secret societies, elite networks, and exclusive organizations further strengthen these power structures. Groups like the Bilderberg Group, the Trilateral Commission, and other closed-door forums provide platforms for powerful individuals to collaborate and strategize. While their intentions may vary, these groups foster an environment where a select few can guide global agendas without public scrutiny. This covert decision-making shapes economic trends, diplomatic relations, and social movements in ways that are difficult to trace.

Lessons Learned on Bay Street -...

Don Johnson

In this memoir, one of the most successful investment bankers on Bay Street shares the lessons he learned about business and life in a long and successful career as president of Burns Fry and then as vice-chairman of BMO Nesbitt Burns. Lessons Learned on Bay Street tells the inside story of how Donald K. Johnson led financing transactions involving hundreds of millions of dollars for Canadian and international corporations, deals that involved some of the biggest financial players in the world, such as Warren Buffet. Johnson shows how he applied that deal-making ability to raise millions for charities. And he illustrates his motto, "the sale begins when the customer says no," with a tale about how he convinced the government to remove the capital gains tax on donations of listed securities. As a longtime practitioner of meditation, Johnson urges readers to choose a career they love, and to keep mentally and physically fit on the way up. This book, from an 85-year-old financial wizard born in Lundar, Manitoba, offers sage advice and a big dose of inspiration to readers seeking success in finance, in other businesses, and in life.
