Mertins-Kirkwood, Hadrian2022-03-212022-03-212017-01http://hdl.handle.net/10315/39417Just Transition is described as “a social justice framework for facilitating the low-carbon transition in a way that minimizes negative employment impacts and ensures equitable outcomes for worker.” It is differentiated from “climate justice”: “A just transition is one of the goals of climate justice advocates, but the two concepts are distinct. Climate justice goes beyond workers, for example, to demand the poor are not disproportionately hurt by policies such as carbon pricing.” The report reviews the latest climate plans published by the federal, provincial, and territorial governments, discovering and describing: 1. Policies that provide income supports to laid-off workers; 2. Policies that provide skills training and re-training for the low-carbon economy, and 3. Policies that directly create new jobs, especially in the communities and regions adversely affected by climate policies.enClimate changeCanadaClimate change policyClimate justiceJust TransitionProvincial policyEvaluating government plans and actions to reduce GHG emissions in Canada: Just Transition policiesWorking paperhttps://digital.library.yorku.ca/islandora/object/yul:1120608/datastream/OBJ/download
