Workshop: B084 Financing the ecological bifurcation

This workshop will focus on the financing of the ecological bifurcation, analysis of previous policies and discussion of alternative proposals.

Financing the ecological bifurcation and the energy transition requires political guidance, investments and appropriate and sufficient financing. Financing necessarily requires the mobilisation of public finances. It is not only a question of generating revenue, but also of effectively influencing behaviour. Moreover, fiscal policy must also prioritise fiscal and social justice (i.e. the reduction of inequalities of all kinds) and strengthen tax compliance. The lever of public debt and monetary policy also plays an important role. At a time when successive IPCC reports are becoming increasingly alarming, fair and effective financing of the ecological bifurcation is absolutely urgent.
