Greenpeace UK: Manifesto for a Green Recovery

‘Nations will begin to emerge from lockdown and look to fire up their economies once again. When that happens it will be the duty of every responsible government to… rebuild in a way that will stand the test of time. That means investing in industries and infrastructure that can turn the tide on climate change. And it means doing all we can to boost resilience by shaping economies that can withstand everything nature throws at us.’ – Boris Johnson, UK Prime Minister, April 2020

‘Not only does climate action remain critical over the next decade, but investments in climate-resilient infrastructure and the transition to a lower-carbon future can drive significant near-term job creation while increasing economic and environmental resiliency. And with near-zero interest rates for the foreseeable future, there is no better time than the present for such investments.’  – Dickon Pinner, Matt Rogers and Hamid Samandari, Senior Partners, McKinsey, April 2020
