Description

The Green New Deal argues for a radical, urgent reorientation of the global economy, including decarbonisation and a commitment to fairness and social justice. Critics have argued that the GND is impractical or costly. Ann Pettifor argues that we need to rethink the function of money and how it works within the global system. How can we bail out the banks but not the planet? We must rethink the assumption of perpetual economic growth. The program is a long-term project that should start immediately.
