New rules that cap total Australian greenhouse gas emissions and curb some new gas and coal investments in the country will come into effect on 1 July after parliament passed an upgraded emissions reduction plan on Thursday.

Straight from a class room to trading securities while just a teenager, Sergio Ermotti has had a career which tracked the Wall Street boom that started in the 1980s, and culminated with him fixing Switzerland's biggest bank after it fell victim to the last financial crash.

Ermotti, who had toyed with becoming a sportsman before banking, will oversee the delicate task of digesting one-time rival Credit Suisse, which was bailed out 10 days ago with roughly 260 billion francs ($280 billion) of state support and sold to UBS, after a string of scandals triggered a run on the lender.

It is a mere minute from Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament. But stepping through Liddell’s Arch into the Georgian splendour of Little Dean’s Yard – possibly the most exclusive school playground in the world – can feel like stepping into another world. Decades on from my own time there, between 1988 and 1993, the miraculous seclusion from the urban hubbub of Yard, as it’s known, has not changed. For it is here that Westminster School pupils still have a kick-about, hurry to class, or

Amal Oraby is usually a fixture at street protests. An activist and lawyer, Oraby is one of the many Palestinian citizens of Israel who have stayed on the sidelines of some of the country’s largest and most sustained demonstrations — a glaring absence in a movement that says it aims to preserve the country's democratic ideals. As minorities long plagued by systemic discrimination, Palestinian Israelis have potentially the most to lose if the plan, which would likely weaken the judiciary's independence, is implemented.

Melting ice could trigger a disastrous chain reaction, a new Australian study warns
The U.S. dollar was a tad higher on Thursday as receding concerns over the banking sector bolstered risk sentiment and investors switched their attention to the Federal Reserve's battle against inflation. "The broader risk sentiment appears sustained as bank contagion concerns continued to fade and a rally in China equities grabs some attention," said Christopher Wong, a currency strategist at OCBC in Singapore.
