Effective Cooperation Between Strangers in Unexpected and Dangerous Situations

Modelling transition-related shocks in the green economy
Limiting global temperature increases to 2°C above pre-industrial levels will necessitate a transition away from fossil fuels and towards low-carbon forms of energy production. While an energy technology transition is necessary to avoid the catastrophic effects of climate change, the transition and its drivers may also generate a number of transition risks, including asset stranding
