Europe has emerged as a global leader in climate action, but what makes Europe's approach so effective? And how did the Russia-Ukraine war unexpectedly become a catalyst for a faster green transition? Jacob Funk Kirkegaard (Peterson Institute for International Economics; Bruegel) joins to discuss carbon pricing, Europe’s adoption of renewable energy and electric vehicles, and whether Europeans are on board with these efforts.
This podcast is produced by the Peterson Institute for International Economics.
