Decarbonizing Development

Three Steps to a Zero-Carbon Future

About this book

Can development be decoupled from carbon emissions? This insightful guide outlines practical steps for policymakers, academics, and development practitioners to achieve a zero-carbon future while fostering economic growth and protecting vulnerable populations.

Decarbonizing Development tackles the complex challenge of climate change by offering a three-pronged approach:

  • Planning with the end goal in mind
  • Implementing policy packages that incentivize technological innovation and behavioral changes
  • Managing the transition to protect the poor and avoid concentrated losses

Discover how countries can navigate the transition to a sustainable, low-carbon economy, ensuring a more equitable and prosperous future for all. A must-read for anyone concerned with climate change and global development. Written by Marianne Fay, Stephane Hallegatte, and team.
