This talk is a roller-coaster ride through a few years of experience in teaching the government about their obligations w.r.t. climate change. It details the procedural hacks they use, and ways to evade them. It also gives examples of elegantly designed cases with a potential of very high impact. Climate law is a domain of logic, language and social ethics, all available in the average hacker's toolbox. I'd argue the world needs our minds to lap up the debris left behind by our governments.

Economic models are increasingly challenged for destroying our planet. But it is not easy to design a sustainable alternative. In a follow-up on my OHM talk "hacking for bankers", I would like to present a few realistic currencies that we can use to move away from the unsustainable path that we are currently walking. We could build a profitable yet sustainable grassroots movement.
