At the same time, it has accelerated many trends that were prevalent pre-Covid, such as de-globalisation, digitisation, and the rise in overall indebtedness.

Climate change is the crisis of our generation, yet global carbon emissions have risen relentlessly over the decades. Underpinning this trend is the inadequate pricing of carbon, which has created economic conditions for corporations and households to continue emitting with abandon rather than seek greener alternatives. How are carbon prices crucial to curbing emissions and containing global warming? What forms can carbon pricing take? In this session, we address these questions and examine the application, strengths and weaknesses of various carbon policies and instruments.
