Copping flak: Rod Oram at COP28
The United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28) closed last week with a notable first: an agreement to transition away from fossil fuels. Not quite the phase out most countries had wanted, and reflective perhaps of the influence of petrostates, including the host Dubai. Indeed, the chair is a head of an oil company, and the next COP is due to be held in Azerbaijan, another petrostate and much under the thumb of Russia.
Is COP a swizz? Can it be trusted to restrict the rise in global temperatures to 1.5 degrees?
Rod Oram was there reporting for Newsroom. Vincent spoke to him after the event.

Peter Schiff: Why Gold Matters So Much Now. Ep 390
There are some who believe that under a gold-backed currency, governments would have to earn money, just like the rest of us do. That means they’d have to learn fast how to be efficient with how they spend, and bring in revenue. To create genuine reform in our government and to pretty much eradicate poverty in the long term, we need to limit the role of government.
Here’s the short view of this worldview – if we can fix the money, we fix the world. Read More

Scope 4 and the new reporting – Dr Jodi York, Climate VC Fund, Kilara Capital
Heard of Scope 4? Us neither. If you thought Scope 3 emissions are hard to count and reduce then Scope 4 lifts the ambition yet again. Scope 4 or so-called avoided emissions ask businesses to create products that replace dirty ones and thereby avoid emissions – think renewables replacing gas or bioplastic replacing PETs. To explain Scope 4, Vincent spoke with Dr Jodi York the chair of the impact committee for the Climate Venture Capital Fund and the head of impact at Melbourne-based Kilara Capital.
Declaration of interest : Vincent works for the Climate VC Fund. It has just published its first annual report and impact reports.

Armed with its own IP, Hamilton-based car charging innovator Hikotron is rolling out a national network of charge points.

NZDD, Social Recovery: 2023 in Review, Ep 387
In New Zealand recently, for example, we’ve seen a new government come to power who’ve decided to restore some of the tax rules that made property investment a viable asset class in the past. We’re also getting much-needed tax cuts, which may offset the pain from inflation for those carrying the biggest load. Our central bank is being given a much more narrow and simplified mandate—focus on inflation. How good is that They’ll soon have one job to do – So there’s hope that both the RBNZ and the government will do a better job of dealing with inflation in the future. As investors, this means more stable interest rates. It’s about confidence. Read more

Climate Leaders Coalition turns five – Jolie Hodson of Spark and Mike Burrell, SBC
The Climate Leaders Coalition turned five years old. Its signatories, which include some of NZ’s largest polluters, are a group of 88 companies that have committed to climate agenda and they’ve notched up some impressive achievements. Collectively they’ve reduced emissions by 3.6 million tonnes, that’s a nearly 30% percent reduction since 2018.
And, this one that I found surprising, 97% of signatories have identified and measured their scope 3 emissions. To discuss the coalition, its five-year milestone and how it sees a future under a new government, Vincent was joined by convenor Jolie Hodson, CEO of Spark, and by Mike Burrell, of the Sustainable Business Council.
