Cardiac problems from cooking your own healthy eggs and bacon steak and pork chops on completely combustible gas cookers? No wonder all those chefs never dropped dead from cardiac arrest until recently. Those darn gas stoves are even giving people all those blot clots! Save the people ban gas and wood stoves ( like in Germany)! Being cold in your own home is also a step forward to show those pesky Ruskies we've figured out their gas is literally making people drop dead, sinister plan mr Putin! We're so blessed with our leaders constantly looking out for our health.
Yeah, exactly.

The Central Bank of the Russian Federation proposes to encourage companies to disclose information about climate risks
The regulator plans to develop approaches and necessary measures for 2023-2024
MOSCOW, December 27.
The Bank of Russia proposes to encourage large borrowers to disclose information about their exposure to climate risks and about measures to limit them with the help of macroprudential allowances. This is reported in the report of the regulator on promising areas of development of banking regulation and supervision.
"We propose to encourage large borrowers to disclose information about their exposure to climate risks and the measures that are being taken to limit them, using macroprudential tools (allowances). Such measures can be implemented after the banking sector exits regulatory easing and stabilizes the situation," the Central Bank said in its materials.
In addition, the regulator proposes to clarify approaches to assessing borrowers' credit risks, as well as requirements for assessing banking business risks (including strategic ones) within the framework of internal capital adequacy assessment procedures, taking into account the influence of climatic factors.
The Central Bank explains that the current banking regulation does not focus on transitional and physical factors as specific sources of risk for credit institutions. At the same time, in order to correctly integrate these factors into the analysis of classical banking risks, according to the regulator, special tools, techniques and statistical data are needed. "Foreign regulators are already actively developing approaches in the field of assessment and accounting, as well as disclosure of information about climate risks by financial institutions," the Bank of Russia adds.
The Central Bank also proposes to strengthen its supervisory functions in terms of analyzing the capital adequacy of banks in the framework of shock scenarios of climate change and (or) carbon regulation.
The regulator plans to develop approaches and necessary measures for 2023-2024, adding that the further implementation schedule in the regulatory regulation will be determined additionally.

Scientists of the Russian Federation and Belarus will create a weather forecast system based on artificial intelligence
The results of the developments are planned to be used in the institutions of Roshydromet
ST. PETERSBURG, January 5, 2023.
Specialists of the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute (AANI) together with their Belarusian colleagues will develop a new system for long-term forecasting of climate change based on artificial intelligence. This was reported to TASS by a research associate of AANIA, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Professor Sergey Soldatenko.
"Applying artificial intelligence methods to the analysis of the results of observations of the past and present state of the climate system, we propose to build a self-learning system for modeling the Earth system and apply this system for long-term weather forecasting and climate forecasting," Soldatenko told the agency.
[...] will focus on climate modeling in the territory of the two countries over a time horizon of 20 years. The results of the developments are planned to be used in the institutions of Roshydromet.
...
The project implementation period is three years. At the same time, he lays the foundations of a new interdisciplinary scientific direction - forecasting the state of the Earth system using artificial intelligence technologies and big data in the presence of uncertainties in them. It is climate big data containing arrays of retrospective weather information that will form the basis of the system and the forecasts created by it.

Russian business does not plan to revise its ESG strategies
A study by the HSE Graduate School of Business's Center for the Sustainable Development of Companies says that small and medium-sized enterprises are increasing the development of "green" products and services
[...]This is stated in the study of the Center for the Management of Sustainable Development of Companies of the Higher School of Business of the HSE.
"Large Russian businesses do not plan to revise their strategies in the field of sustainable development either in the short or medium term, despite the economic turbulence and the geopolitical situation, the exclusion of Russian players from the main Western ESG ratings," the report says.
[...]Contrary to the forecasts of many experts, more than 40% of Russian companies in the SME segment continue to develop the production of "green" products and services, half of the organizations monitor the implementation of environmental and ethical standards by suppliers and 37% contribute to the development of industry standards and ESG.
"During the crisis period, the ESG agenda, like many business models, is being rethought and reassessed. Companies are thinking about the economic efficiency of spending on ESG, and the state is thinking about additional measures to support the economy and society," said Irina Arkhipova, director of the Center for the Management of Sustainable Development of Companies at the HSE Graduate School of Business, whose words are quoted in the report.
The implementation of ESG strategies of companies directly follows from the 17 UN Goals for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. ESG is a set of tools that companies use. They are focused on ecology (environmental), social responsibility (social) and corporate governance (governance).

The Government has approved an innovative project to create a national monitoring system for climatically active substances
The work is being carried out on behalf of the President of Russia.
Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin signed an order approving the innovative project "Unified National Monitoring System of Climatically active substances". Its implementation will help prevent the negative impact of climate change on all sectors of the economy and the quality of life of citizens.
The national monitoring system will provide independent climate forecasts and information on the causes of climate change. Scientifically based data and environmental monitoring will become the basis for making management decisions in the field of limiting greenhouse gas emissions and adapting the Russian economy to global climate change. This will increase the effectiveness of the measures taken by the state in the field of climate policy.
Dozens of scientific institutions across the country will take part in carrying out the necessary research and development. With their help, a physical and mathematical model of the Earth will be created, various climatic processes will be monitored, scenarios for decarbonization of economic sectors will be developed. In addition, scientists will create systems for monitoring the melting of permafrost. Action programmes to combat desertification will also be developed for 13 regions of the country.
The innovative project will be implemented in two stages. The first one will last until the end of 2024. By this date, the scientific, legal and personnel conditions for the functioning of the new system will be prepared. A methodological basis will also be formed for the ecological transformation of economic sectors. As part of the second stage, the formation of these conditions will be completed, and the system will begin to function in full. The Ministry of Economic Development will be responsible for the implementation of the project together with the federal authorities responsible for this or that event.
In September, more than 1.5 billion rubles were allocated for the implementation of the innovative project. Its further financing will be provided within the framework of the federal project "Low-carbon Development Policy" and at the expense of extra-budgetary sources."
