Long-term climate-friendly stimulus policies often have the best overall economic impact and not just a slowing effect on global warming, according to a study by an international team of leading economists, including Joseph Stiglitz and Nicholas Stern, published Thursday 7 May in the Oxford Review of Economic Policy.
They identified more than 700 stimulus policies and conducted a survey of 231 experts from 53 countries, including senior officials from finance ministries and central banks.
