Environmental Insights: Conversations on policy and practice from the Harvard Environmental Economics Program.

Overview

Robert Stavins interviews Lord Nicholas Stern, one of the world’s foremost experts on climate change.

It was more than a decade ago that Lord Nicholas Stern — working on behalf of British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Chancellor of the Exchequer Gordon Brown — directed the landmark Stern Review on the Economics of Climate Change, published in 2006. In the interview, he notes that it was his appointment to that position that truly sparked his intense interest in the topic.
