As a young child, author N.L. Sher had experiences of enlightenment, but forgot about these instances until hitting the age of the early 40s. The author then began remembering these experiences, which came with new elements and happenings such as telepathic communication. But it wasn't until the passing of Sher's mate Carol that these gifts truly came to light--that telepathic communications and other talents were actually being realized. Are You There? shares Sher's journey of discovering that death is not final, that there is a way to keep loved ones who have passed, close. It tells how these communications provided peace, comfort, and joy. Through this story, the author narrates experiences of the metaphysical, of coincidence, and of channeling sessions and how these helped Sher stay connected to Carol.With interviews from others included, the testimony provided in Are You There? offers evidence there is a way to maintain a connection with loved ones after they have passed.
The 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference reinforced already existing pressure to transition away from fossil fuels, in particular for the most polluting source, coal. We use a comprehensive dataset on bank loans for coal projects to shed light on which type of banks continue to finance coal and how coal phase-out commitments affect coal financing. We find that coal financing is becoming increasingly concentrated, partly in banks with a very high coal exposure. We also find that many coal loans have maturities much shorter than the remaining lifetime of coal assets, thus exposing equity holders of coal assets to the risk of a more difficult loan rollover. An econometric analysis shows that countries with a strong commitment to coal phase-out, fixed in national law for example, receive less coal financing. Using an instrumental variable, we identify this effect as causal.
