Abstract
The world has no choice but to move towards a greener economy with minimal carbon emissions and less exploitation of nature. But moving towards that must avoid accentuating the inequalities that have been responsible for bringing us to the verge of planetary destruction, and must ensure that people in low and middle income countries do not bear the double burdens of climate change and the costs of the green transition. Reducing inequality is key to a just transition, and I will outline how it can be done.
