Good morning,
Today will be the last issue of Green, Inc. before the new year, while all newsletters from Fortune take a two-week holiday until Jan. 4. As this is the final letter of 2022, it’s a good time to look back at the year gone by and the one waiting ahead.
Predictably, 2022 has been another year of climate disasters.
