If they can't find $8M to extend this ones life for 10 years then I highly doubt they are going to get a new one. Unfortunately.

I find it quickest to CTRL+SHIFT+K if I'm in the browser or run `iex` or `python3` in terminal to calculate something ad-hoc.

So it looks at how well the company is prepared to do when the climate changes (mostly by having written some plans). It does not care much about what the company actions do to the world.
