The 3rd CEPR/EBRD/Economics of Transition/LSE Symposium on environmental economics and the green transition in advanced and emerging markets is taking place on 13-14 June at the EBRD headquarters.

The symposium will provide a platform for researchers and policy makers to discuss new research and to identify areas where further academic and policy-oriented work is needed, such as in:

  •  The impact of environmental quality on individual productivity, employment, and well-being
  •  The impact of climate change on emerging markets
  •  The role of governments and firms in fighting climate change
  •  Firm-level energy efficiency and how to improve it
  •  Climate change and economic (in)equality across and within countries
  •  Greening the financial system
  •  Corporate environmental responsibility
  •  Climate change and agricultural productivity
  •  Stranded assets for energy and carbon intensive industries
  •  Agency and governance problems that distort corporate climate risk management
  •  Environmental policies and macroeconomic dynamics
  •  Behavioural foundations of environmentally (un-)friendly consumer actions
  •  The environment and network effects

The symposium features keynote talks by Catherine Wolfram (University of California, Berkeley and NBER) and Arik Levinson (Georgetown University).
