A note from Satya Brata Das and Colleagues at The Digital Economist Center of Excellence on Human-centered Global Economy

The Digital Economist works with the priorities for addressing the planetary climate crisis set by the Conference of Parties (COP) serving as the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the Glasgow Climate Pact reached at COP26, and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (Agenda 2030).

Our first policy brief in our series Meeting the Climate Challenge, a call for a global carbon levy on fossil fuel extraction, addresses the key question evoked in the Glasgow talks, which is at the heart of the climate question — financing.

In the second policy brief in this series, The Digital Economist sought consensus that transcends the differences that became evident in Glasgow, to seek common purpose and common ground using our 6-D vision.
