石炭の先にあるものクリーンエネルギーの規模拡大による世界各地の貧困撲滅
超越煤炭扩大清洁能源规模,消除全球贫困

Abstract

This paper provides evidence that a lasting solution to poverty requires the world’s wealthiest economies to renounce coal, and we can and must end extreme poverty without the precipitous expansion of new coal power in developing ones.

Description

Report for COP22 on the need for financing of small-scale renewable energy to meet SDG7 targets, instead of investing in fossil-fuel power.
