Economics does not hold the key to solving Climate Change
- Professor Julian Allwood, June 2022
We had a hot week, but that’s not the problem. The Bonn Climate Conference last week prioritised financing and compensation for loss and damage, but that’s not the solution.

And perhaps, if we take notice, we might at last recognise what Climate Change is really about.
