In this interview with Laughlin Artz of Context News, I had the privilege of explaining how the emerging Paris Agreement marks an historic breakthrough in the history of global collaboration and climate action. The Paris Agreement would, only 9 days later, become one piece of a new framework driving universal implementation of the 1992 UN Framework Convention on Climate Change.
Beyond that, various elements of the emerging post-Paris climate policy landscape—including the Carbon Pricing Leadership Coalition and the Citizens’ Climate Engagement Network—provide us with a real opportunity to shift the operational logic of our economies. We can now move away from an ancient and outdated gamble on scarcity to a creative collaborative economy where to have what I want and need, you should have what you want and need as well.
