Please inform your readers about how to stop climate change by stopping its cause. According to Lord Stern's advice to the UK government in 2006, climate change has been caused by the biggest market the world has ever known. However, he made no recommendation to stop market failure. Instead, he accepted market failure and recommended only amelioration by carbon taxing or trading. This is like trying to run up an escalator that is taking humanity down to what the UN Secretary-General described as a highway to climate hell. Market failure can be stopped by changing the nature of money by tethering it to an index of sustainability in each bioregion of the planet.
