€2bil green funds in Dec/ FT says more govt bonds OK

Two news items of note:1. Responsible Investor reports that themed 'green' funds, including green bonds, raised €2 billion in the past month.2. LSE Prof Andrew Scott argues persuasively in the Financial Times yesterday that that there's nothing wrong with increasing government debt levels in western countries.  In fact he thinks it's the right policy to manage the challenges we currently face, and a policy that's been proven in the past to work. This is important if we're to see the scale of climate bonds issuance required to meet the challenge of climate change.
