First Casualties of the Green Economy – Risks and Losses for Low Income Women

Nidhi Tandon

Development, 2012, vol. 55, issue 3, 311-319

Abstract: Nidhi Tandon argues that women are the first casualties to renewable energy. The current political/economic paradigm ensures that the interests of the global and export economies from the productive capacity of land and water are protected while small farming communities are not. She sees possibilities in the green economy only if it rests on the involvement and engagement of poor people.
