**Here’s one I missed until today. Think you and I can do this too?**

[Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/business/banks-vote-limit-accounting-emissions-bond-stock-sales-sources-2023-07-30/)

> Banks working to develop global standards on accounting for carbon emissions in bond or stock sale underwriting **`have voted to exclude most of these emissions from their own carbon footprint,`** three people familiar with the matter said.
> 
> **`The majority of banks comprising an industry working group backed a plan earlier this month to exclude two-thirds of the emissions linked to their capital markets businesses from being attributed to them in carbon accounting,`** the sources said,
> 
> **`Banks' accounting of these emissions will impact their targets for becoming carbon-neutral. Major lenders have pledged to bring their emissions down to zero on a net basis by 2050,`** and have set interim targets for this decade.

**And banks will hit their net zero target by simply not accounting for their emissions. See how simple that is when your holding the cards and have the power?**
