“ financiers provided the world’s top 55 industrial livestock companies with average annual credit injections of $77bn”
Are the meat and dairy businesses applying for loans? The article says that the banks are in breach of their own environmental policies so I’m curious how it’s supposed to work.
So many quotable pieces in this article. This is one that stayed with me:
“ The brain has learned that the phone is a random provider of "new experiences". Even in airplane mode, it was demonstrated that having the phone on your desk or in your bag degrades heavily your attention and your thinking performance. Performance went back to normal only when the phone was put in another room.”
I can absolutely believe this. I find even other people’s phones distracting.
