Really interesting and plausible parsing of who was on which side of a roadmap to phase out fossil fuels at COP30
I wrote about just transition in Brazil for UNRISD - TLDR, lots of different impacts, from new kinds of energy, from old ones, with different implications for different groups (some hit urban, some indigenous, some quilombolos, some labor) www.unrisd.org/en/library/p...

Great to have the book out there...110 authors, it's a Great Leap Forward in our understanding of why we're failing to act on climate change.

For eg 14 on list are also roadmap "supporters"

As we witness climate obstruction in real time at #COP30, this @cssn.org presser w/ @timmonsroberts.bsky.social, @daniellefalzon.bsky.social, @maxboykoff.bsky.social and Carlos Milani to discuss a new global assessment on climate obstruction is rather timely.
