Andrew Mitchell will speak on “Banking on Nature”: How Patterson’s Darien disaster in Panama, and Carney’s Tragedy of the Horizon in London, might lead to a change in the movement of money that could save planet Earth.
Master environmental storyteller and former Chairman of the UK based Scientific Exploration Society, Andrew Mitchell will weave an expeditionary tale from the first Governor of the Bank of England, to the last Governor of the Bank of England, exploring how nature and money are set to re-wild the financial frontier!
