It's real. And so is Dr Chen. But it's not a coin, nor a currency and we may use blockchain for MRV but it's not part of the proposal.

And he just published a 163pp policy working paper.

New Economic Blueprint for Resolving the Climate Crisis
Announcing the Carbon Reward Policy Paper
open.substack.com
The economist behind The Ministry for the Future’s “carbon coin” just released the real policy.
It’s called the Global Carbon Reward — a way to pay for verified climate repair instead of just taxing harm.

I don’t know too many people who dream about the future anymore.

When I was a kid, we all did. We talked about the year 2000. Sometimes with dread. But mostly with anticipation and excitement.

We saw a bright future — at least as a possibility — out there on the horizon.

We do not "catch up" on measles infections. Stop it with this immunity debt nonsense.
Frankly one of the dumbest pieces of effectively pro-infection propaganda I’ve ever read. This infectious disease doctor thinks lockdown-induced immunity debt may have caused the Ontario measles outbreak even though this same Toronto Star article points out 96% of cases are along the unvaccinated.

Confirmation of major Trump nominees has tended to be followed by radical moves in the related subject area, such as the pivot to Russia now that a foreign policy team is in place. I wonder what's coming after the Senate confirms Kash Patel?

Oh, yes, it’s very important that the Justice Department drop the indictment against Adams, so the city of New York can be run effectively.
More resignations imminent, @NYTimes.com reports: "The four officials — Maria Torres-Springer, the first deputy mayor, and Meera Joshi, Anne Williams-Isom and Chauncey Parker, all also deputy mayors — oversee much of New York City government."

Tom Homan asks “where is that line,” as if it is mysterious or unknowable. It’s not. Tom’s saying it that way because he’s too much of a coward just to say “she should be arrested for telling people their rights.” Also, to be fair, he may be too dim to understand the line.
