Net zero should not be an excuse to not get off fossil fuels, says Spinoza Prize winner Joyeeta Gupta
Joyeeta Gupta, professor of environment and development in the Global South at the University of Amsterdam, won the Spinoza Prize, the highest award in Dutch academia, sometimes referred to as the Dutch Nobel prize. Gupta’s work lies at the intersection of climate crisis, governance and justice, and the jury recognised it as “extremely broad and interdisciplinary”: She was also the lead author of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007 along with former US vice-president Al Gore.

Expect more volatility this week; be stock selective: Aamar Deo Singh, Angel One
While stock markets have discounted the Fitch downgrade, mixed global cues coupled with a spike in crude oil prices post Ukraine’s drone hit on Russian oil installations, could trigger high volatility in coming weeks, says Aamar Deo Singh, Head Advisory at Angel One. Being selective in investments will be key, he adds.What lies ahead for Nifty after falling 0.66% this week on Fitch factor? Is that priced in now? Most of the major global markets closed in the red last week, on the back of the downgrade of the US credit rating to AA+ by Fitch.

Food prices pick up as trade tensions, extreme weather flare
food prices rose for the first time in three months, as trade disruptions from India to the Black Sea and extreme weather stoke supply concerns anew. The United Nations’ index of food-commodity prices gained 1.3% in July, led by vegetable oil, according to a Friday report. That marks a pickup from the two-year low reached the prior month as fresh threats emerge in the supply chain.

Russia's war with Ukraine has generated its own fog, and mis- and disinformation are everywhere
Ukraine, the fog of war plagues soldiers. And far from the fighting, a related and just as disorienting miasma afflicts those who seek to understand what's happening in the vast war. Disinformation, misinformation and absent information all cloud civilians’ understanding.
