The main takeaway from this NYT Daily episode on #COP27 climate finance is that #capitalism will somehow save the day? It's the root cause of the #climateCrisis, but it's also somehow, the solution for frontline adaptation?
Is anyone buying this?

@gregory_manni totally misguided to think capitalism itself will solve #climatecrisis - without annihilation of half the world's population at any rate.
@gregory_manni @PSarkies The "pure climate" stories are quite good but if it's anything else with big climate implications like the price of petrol and drilling licenses, they still too often completely ignore the climate dimensions.
@PSarkies Yeah, this was a surprising take. Normally the Daily does a fair job on climate stories, but this one just seemed to run away without the usual reality check.
