<\/strong><strong>it comes to green promises<\/strong>, writes the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/7e291e43-3741-42f3-9a32-fb455bb33a08\">Financial Times<\/a>. Since COP26 in Glasgow, the UK COP team have been meeting with delegations from countries around the world to hammer out green agreements. Britain is also working to push the global implementation of the broad agreements delivered in Glasgow, which focus on coal, carbon markets, financing for developing nations and national climate targets. At the same time, however, UK leaders have failed to stick to a common narrative around the green transition, instead defending new oil and gas projects and refusing to impose a windfall tax on the sector as surging energy costs put pressure on households and companies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Climate targets are taking a backseat thanks to the energy crisis<\/strong>, which is \u201csqueezing the political space for countries to focus on their climate change policy,\u201d Alex Scott, who works at the climate think-tank E3G, told the FT. This is putting the UK\u2019s COP team in the tricky position of pushing other countries to accelerate their green energy plans at the same time as the government stalls on its own domestic climate agenda.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Egypt will be handed the COP presidency in November <\/strong>as the country hosts COP27 in Sharm El Sheikh. Until then, it\u2019s likely that Egypt will increase its diplomatic push ahead of the climate forum, similar to the 460 UK climate attaches who helped to lobby ministers worldwide ahead of Glasgow, the FT writes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SIGN OF THE TIMES- Automotive players are reskilling for the electric future:<\/strong> Bosch, Europe\u2019s premier auto parts supplier, will spend EUR 2 bn to retrain its workers for the shift from fuel-powered engines to electric vehicles, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/6e6be236-050a-4bfe-839b-653f6d8cb3ac\">FT reports<\/a>.

Season two of the show has just been released, looking at three different cases in the US and Canada. The first looks at BTK, a Kansas serial killer who re-emerges after 30 years of hiding, leading investigators to use DNA technology and garner help from the media to catch their guy. The Phoenix Serial Shooter is another case in the US, in which the killer sees murders as a sport as he targets random pedestrians on the streets. Finally, the Toronto Village Killer gets two episodes which explore how men with similar features were being reported missing in Toronto in a horrific story of cannibalism.<\/p>\n<p>\u26bd <strong>The chase continues between Liverpool and Manchester City at the top of the <\/strong><strong>English Premier League today.<\/strong> Liverpool will be looking to narrow the gap between them and league leaders Man City to nine points when they kick off against relegation-threatened Burnley at 4pm.

After the pandemic underlined the necessity of tech adoption, it is even more important now to bring in those left behind by the digital revolution, Khanna argues. The book features insights from several political philosophy and economics experts, who alongside Khanna, suggest that the approach of \u201cprogressive capitalism,\u201d can help democratize access to tech. While the book is mainly US-focused, it provides a roadmap and policy recommendations on how to fastrack access to tech that can be implemented in countries like Egypt, such as more public and private partnerships.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!-- .entry-content -->\n\n\t\n<\/article><!-- #post-${ID} -->\n\n\n    <div class=\"tags-section\">\n        <div class=\"f-graphik\">Tags:<\/div>\n        <div class=\"tags-list\">\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/enterprise-recommends\/\">Enterprise Recommends<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/on-the-tube-tonight\/\">On The Tube Tonight<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                            <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/tag\/under-the-lamplight\/\">Under the Lamplight<\/a>\n                <!-- <span class=\"sep\">,&nbsp;<\/span> -->\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.story -->\r\n    \n    \n\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"544142\" class=\"issue-section \">\n<div class=\"issue-section__content\">\n<div class=\"stories\">            <!-- Show divider before story section -->\r\n        <div \r\n            class=\"\r\n                story-section            \"\r\n            id=\"544142\">\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"issue-story-header text-center\">\r\n                    <div class=\"index-number\">4<\/div>\r\n\r\n                    <p class=\"f-graphik\">GO WITH THE FLOW<\/p>\r\n                    <h3 class=\"story-title\">\r\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2022\/02\/13\/earnings-watch-amoc-adcb-egypt\/\">\r\n                            Earnings watch: AMOC, ADCB Egypt                        <\/a>\r\n                    <\/h3>\r\n\r\n                    \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"cta\">\n    <div class=\"cta__btn share-dropdown-cta dropdown-toggle-btn\" style=\"position:relative\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ent.news\/internal\/408834.svg\" alt=\"\">\n        Share Story\n        <!-- Dropdown Menu -->\n        <ul class=\"share-menu\">\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/enterpriseam.com\/egypt\/2022\/02\/13\/earnings-watch-amoc-adcb-egypt\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    Open in new tab                    <!-- <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"assets\/media\/placeholder\/svg\/new-tab.svg\" alt=\"\"> -->\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"list-inline-item\">\n                <a href=\"#\" target=\"_blank\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault();
