Briefings
A 2026 review indicates that transitioning to a low-carbon economy creates uneven impacts across populations. While overall benefits likely outweigh costs, workers face job losses, households face higher prices, and communities reliant on carbon-intensive industries face lasting economic and social disruption. The evidence highlights that the transition is not universally beneficial and requires more than just financial support.
Key points
- Workers may lose jobs during the transition to a low-carbon economy.
- Communities dependent on carbon-intensive industries face lasting economic and social disruption.
