Computer Says Yes! We can afford climate justice

No climate justice without climate finance has long been a rallying cry from millions of people in developing countries, civil society, indigenous communities, faith groups and others whose daily lives are impacted by climate change. Unless governments, particularly wealthy ones, reimagine the centrality of international public finance, there is a danger that climate justice will be delayed further.

This report focuses on the UK’s contribution to international climate finance. It shows that through options including progressive taxes on extreme wealth and on polluting activities, as well as redirecting producer fossil fuel subsidies to renewable energy, the UK can easily contribute its fair share of climate finance, as well as support a green transition at home.
