HSBC has reportedly suspended a senior executive after he questioned the risk climate change plays on financial markets, arguing investors shouldn’t worry about it, according to Financial Times.

“Who cares if Miami is six meters underwater in 100 years? Amsterdam has been six meters underwater for ages and that’s a really nice place,” he said later in the presentation.
Even though the riveting presentation had been cleared internally, top HSBC management were forced to denounce the presentation as a public relations controversy unfolded.

Anthropogenic climate change is as valid as covid “vaccines” are safe and effective.
By firing him, HSBC only proves that he’s absolutely correct in his assessment… These predators just continue to give their game away. Praise God!
