Check out this article from the Climate & Development Knowledge Network on "CDKN seeks your view on green growth - join the debate."by Simon Maxwell. To read Maxwell's "10 Observations on Climate Change and Growth," access the PDF here.
Maxwell´s 10 points:
1. Growth does matter for poor countries – even though most poverty is not in the poorest countries
2. Climate change is one driver, but the measures taken to tackle climate change will also have effects on growth
3. A global perspective is needed
4. A climate compatible strategy needs to be at the heart of the response
5. Low carbon growth appears feasible
6. Get overall policy right: the need for a flexible and competitive economy
7. Link climate policies to growth
8. The priority for funding is to leverage private flows
9. Invest in the politics of climate compatible development
10. Grow - and be happy!
