The green way out of the crisis

The climate crisis is still one of the main issues of society despite the epidemic, and now there is an opportunity for change when the economy is rebuilt.

Ann Pettifor is one of the original thinkers of the green new social contract that has been developing on both sides of the Atlantic, economist and author of "The Case for the Green New Deal". She will discuss how we can change the economy so that it protects and works for the environment.

The moderator is Sigríður Ingibjörg Ingadóttir, BSRB economist.

ASÍ, BSRB and Varða - the labor market research institute are organizing a series of lunch meetings about the right way out of the crisis. At the meetings, theoretical discussion is interwoven with experience of the organized work of trade unions and other non-governmental organizations. The meetings take place via Zoom and are open to everyone.
