The House of Commons summoned the Big 5 Canadian bank CEOs to explain their overinvestment in oil and gas, and underinvestment in clean climate solutions. A momentous move. Testimonies from Oil & Tobacco co's have literally shifted history. I am here live to follow. 👇🧵

Last month, a NBER working paper found that the macroeconomic damages from climate change are *six times* larger than we thought. A 1°C increase in global temperature leads to a 12% decline in world GDP. nber.org/papers/w32450
