To my personal knowledge AI has already ended thousands of jobs in banking & accountancy firms. Most accountancy firms are halving recruitment. I would be interested to hear what is really happening elsewhere.

I struggle a bit with the fact that the elf guy with short hair looks like he's come straight from his dayjob of middle management in an accountancy office.

This isn't a brilliant report. The basic problem with Oxfam's emissions allocation methodology is that it multiple-counts due to a misunderstanding of carbon accountancy.

This further finding, that the rich also invest in disaster response, just seems to be circular logic from "investment bad".
Brilliant report by Oxfam finds that not only are the rich driving climate breakdown, and profiting from planet-destroying activities, they are also profiting from post-disaster reconstruction projects, giving them an incentive to continue. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Oxfam says investing by rich in disaster recovery widens inequality and gives incentive to delay climate action

Today I woke up and chose violence, but Oxfam's methodology sucks so badly in terms of incentivising useful behaviour change by people with money, instead of accountancy reshuffling that would reduce double-counting but not necessarily actual emissions.

Nostos — the project doesn't have to be full-time for the accountancy — the accountancy doesn't have to be full-time for the project.

ADHD brain remains unmatched: I have the Accountancy Shanty from Monty Python's The Meaning of Life stuck in my head. I haven't seen that movie in years.

I have a job that can also be a name for a tech death metal band

I do wonder how much of customer money has been spent over the last couple of years supposedly trying to restructure rather than into infrastructure improvement.

Any idea? It must be out there somewhere….the legal, organisational and accountancy and PR costs

🚨BREAKING: Thames Water's 'best & final offer' to Ofwat includes a demand to waive penalties in return for a cash payment.

REALLY?? Offering money to be let off illegal sewage dumping?

Andy Burnham, it's time to end this farce. Take Thames Water into Special Administration then public ownership.

Au emissions should be determined independently. Business and corporate accountancy orgs should have nothing to do with measuring emissions.

I’d bet this corrupt process will continue because our government is a central pillar to that corruption #auspol

Like, you can't compare a billionaire's Scope 3 emissions with Australia's, because some of them are the same ton!

That's not what carbon accountancy was designed to do - it was designed to help entities (like companies) reduce their own emissions and those they influence.
