Fast and fair transition to a green economy
A deep and equitable transformation to address the climate crisis
We all want to live on a healthy planet, but our economy is currently designed to make profits from fossil fuels that accelerate climate breakdown.
We are at the cusp of several tipping points in nature and climate, which will have devastating consequences for our economy and society at large. But, with decisive and deep action, we can avoid the worst impacts of climate breakdown and build more equal and happier societies. How we invest and transform our economics in the next few years will have profound impacts over decades.
We need to deliver adequate investments in critical areas of the green transition, ensuring fast and equitable action for a sustainable future. We can re-design our economy with progressive fiscal and monetary policies, green industrial initiatives and the creation of green jobs to tackle the climate and inequality crises at the same time.
Above all, NEF stands for a just transition: tackling climate change must go hand in hand with tackling inequality.
