Biggest news in a long time. After a ton of pressure, Blackrock--which owns more fossil fuel stock than anyone on earth--announces it will put 'climate change at the center of its investment strategy.' A huge--if by no means final--win for activists! nytimes.com/2020/01/14/bus…

If I were going to go all weak-kneed like the The New York Times, I'm not sure I would have picked the day devoted to our most clear-eyed moral leader to do it. (Always worth remembering that the NYT editorial board slammed MLK when he came out against the Vietnam War)
