Really privileged (really!) to spend three days at the Salzburg Global Seminar discussing Just Energy Transitions with a remarkable group of people from governments in Africa, Latin America, the Caribbean, and West Asia, as well some enormously talented people from Civil Society and academia. A special shout out to Climate Strategies and Andrzej Błachowicz (and the Stanley Center for Peace and Security and the WINDWARD FUND) for organizing it so well, but just as importantly for (with the remarkable folks from Salzburg: Martin Weiss, Benjamin Glahn Nancy R. Smith and their team) opening up an umbrella under which a group of quite disparate people and interests could come together and be fruitfully and safely creative on one of the biggest issues of our time. Delighted also to be joined by my colleague Barry Murphy, and together — hopefully! — we showed how tax might make positive contributions to a just energy transition. A long road ahead, but a crucial issue, and I left feeling genuinely hopeful. #justenergytransition #salzburgglobalseminar
