For decades, economists have been asked to assess the costs of reducing emissions to eliminate key climate risks. They have consistently got the answer wrong, because they assumed away innovation and change.

The concern of most economists is accelerating inflation. We don't have that in the US or in the world. the measures that are being imposed [by the Fed] is overkill. The 2% inflation target is completely arbitrary and has been embraced by central banks. - @ksjomo

A little known fact that the WPA put so many Black people to work and that a subsidized jobs program targeted to communities suffering from high unemployment could work.

An area for action as proposed by @UN #SDGStimulus Plan is to⬆️access to existing & to new emergency funding instruments for response to crises. #G20 needs to be ready to ratchet up–thru central bank swaps, emergency credit lines at IMF & SDRs if needed. https://t.co/agq0NRYyDF

In India's #G20 year, there's been a flurry of sustainable finance announcements, pointing to the potential for transformational deals to mobilise the trillions the country needs for #netzero & #SDGs. My thoughts here: https://t.co/92xoQP8Bu9 @g20org @TandonSuranjali @k9neha
