Description

In The News, Clean Energy: The Challenge of Achieving a “Just Transition” for WorkersTackling climate change is good for the economy, good for business and good for people. Around the word, there is a growing movement demanding a “just transition” for the workforce, so that workers are not left in the cold as fossil fuels become consigned to the past.
