While Climate Summit COP27 Will Under-Deliver, The Market Shifts Towards Sustainability Will Accelerate
Background November 2022 was named the month of sustainability given that the COP27 Climate Summit is taking place during this time. These high-level meetings, however, will not produce any breakthrough given the global recession, high inflation, and geopolitical tensions due to Russia’s war in Ukraine. There will continue to be momentum towards the 2050 decarbonization targets, but we will fall short of concrete implementation of the climate commitments to keep the temperature increase to 1.5 C.

What a $10 Million Space Hotel Room Gets You
You sit in your hotel room, looking out the window as a robot massages your shoulders. You just finished an intense game of zero-g basketball, and your muscles are a little tight. You do feel lighter due to the lighter gravity though. The hotel room itself is moving slowly, so the view out your window is always changing. Suddenly the most beautiful sight you’ve ever seen comes into view. A blue orb with swirling white whisps and lush continents passes by. Tears fill your eyes as you look at Earth from the first hotel in space.

COP27 Climate Summit: Some Key Statistics on Risk and Investment Trends
As Egypt hosts the most important sustainability event of the year, COP27, the Middle Eastern country is pushing hard on making the summit about decarbonization implementation as opposed to climate commitments. However, given the weak global economy, high inflation, and geopolitical instability, we should not expect many breakthroughs coming out of this year's summit. The over 100 countries participating will be negotiating the establishment of the Damage and Loss Fund (a fund to finance damage and losses suffered by most vulnerable countries), as well as the $ 100 billion yearly investment commitment for developing countries to address their climate adaptation and mitigation priorities. Nobody expects much progress on either front given the limited political capital of the largest polluting countries as well as the weak budget space to fill the climate financing gap.

Hunt For Habitable Ocean Worlds Beyond Our Solar System

Currently, robotic missions are being considered to look for biosignatures on outer planets. In 2004, NASA formed the Outer Planets Assessment Group to determine scientific priorities and pathways for exploration of the outer solar system.
