Work in a Warming World (W3)

Abstract

Marc Lee of the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives argues that BC needs to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to near zero by mid-century at the latest, which will require a new, green industrial revolution that will have transformative impacts on work in the province. In addition, the need to adapt to inevitable climate change impacts will also have employment implications.
