About this Event
The second lecture will look at four case studies over the last two years—President Biden’s massive climate-related public investment agenda and the response from US trade unions, the effort to decarbonize the British steel industry, the attempt to phase out the South African coal mining industry, and the effort by President Lula to decarbonize Brazil’s economy after years of climate denial under his predecessor. In each case, the interactions of government, labour parties, and labour unions provides lessons about what to do and not to do to fight climate change effectively, both in the developed and the developing world.
The lecture will be presented by Professor Damon Silvers
