'The Global South Must Claim the Climate Mantle at COP30'
Content
Jayati Ghosh, economics, has co-authored an op-ed arguing that the current political climate in the U.S. and Europe has opened opportunities for the Global South to focus on climate issues.
"To this day, the Global South grapples with the challenge of pursuing sustainable development while promoting environmental responsibility. Many developing countries have long feared that climate policies might reinforce historical inequalities or constrain their growth. But now, the Global South has an opening to ensure that the international agenda reflects its priorities," write the authors.
