Elizabeth Baker

The document discusses several topics related to crises, lending policy, renewable and non-renewable resources, and proposals from the European Commission to address climate change through reducing carbon emissions. It proposes a European Union-wide cap on emissions of 40% below 2005 levels by 2020, including increasing the scope of emissions trading to include aviation and transitioning to full auctioning of carbon allowances, especially in the power sector. The costs of inaction on these crises are said to be higher than the costs of coordinated global action.
