In a candid interview, economist, and former politician Rick van der Ploeg emphasizes the critical need for immediate action to tackle escalating global emissions. Despite decades of summits and commitments, emissions continue to rise, with fossil fuel companies exploring new reserves. Van der Ploeg argues for a significant increase in carbon pricing and a shift from fossil fuel subsidies to robust support for renewable energy. He emphasizes the importance of global cooperation, warns against political back-sliding, and stresses the need for a grand coalition to rapidly develop and implement green technologies.
