Decarbonization and “Greenflation”

Otaviano Canuto

No 2131, Policy briefs on Economic Trends and Policies from Policy Center for the New South

Abstract: Accelerating the transition toward low or net-zero carbon emissions is necessary to keep global warming at theoretically safe levels. That will likely bring price shocks associated with rising metal prices, energy costs, and carbon taxes – what has been called “greenflation”. Greening the economy will also require public spending and redistributive policies.
