CrisisWatch

Media-web, March 2012

Article by Nicholas Stern (et al.) at the European Voice: Towards a resilient green economy - Austerity measures will not boost growth, but investment in a green economy will.

 “Europe's response to the crisis cannot be limited to fiscal austerity and structural reforms. A focus solely on deleveraging and structural reforms risks enormous economic and social dislocation. Europe therefore needs a plan to re-launch jobs and growth. Simultaneously, the current reform of the European economy must address long-term challenges, such as resource scarcity and climate change.”
