PERI Co-Director Robert Pollin, in an interview with C.J. Polychroniou, analyzes the state of the global green transition in the lead-up to Sunday’s mass protest. He argues that "To have any chance of moving onto a viable global climate stabilization path, the single most critical project at hand is straightforward. It is to phase out the consumption of oil, coal and natural gas, so that, by 2050, fossil fuel consumption for producing energy will have fallen to zero."
