A Global Consumer-Driven Low-Carbon Investment Fund for Development and Adaptation

Authors: Anthony J. Webster
Comments: 4 Pages.

A successful response to climate change offers the greatest public health opportunity of the century, but intervention is needed to prevent catastrophic climate change and to realise this tantalising possibility. A global investment fund for development, R&D, and low-carbon investments can succeed, with long-term dividends used for adaptation to the climate.

A grassroots response can start arbitrarily small, but aspire to include all transactions.
