Chris Greig in speaking to #PrincetonReunions crowd, framed the #netzero transition as a massive opportunity for investors + entrepreneurs. He said $2.7 trillion in capital will need to be deployed by 2030 to meet carbon goals. Investment must start now.

Lego, Bruce Springsteen & donut holes...they all teach us something about the secrets of #subtraction.
Our default to fix a problem is often to add more. More time. More money. More personnel. We rarely consider the value of removing something.

I will be getting #vaccinated against #Covid_19, as soon as my turn comes around, not to protect myself, but to minimise the chance I pass the virus to others who are more vulnerable. Achieving “Herd immunity” is all about doing your bit for the community. – at Brisbane, Queensland

“Everything is the result of survivorship bias. It is hidden and easily overlooked. That is why success is so much rarer, more difficult and fragile than it appears to be.” The roots of the Lottery Economy.
This hidden world of failure helps to create a deeply flawed understanding of the universe. By not seeing this, we misunderstand the elements of success. Not only that, we believe that success is faster/cheaper/easier than it really is.
