Socio-Economic Impact of the Green Transition

Year: 2026

Type: book-chapter

Abstract: Chapter 4 focuses on the broader socio-economic implications of the green transition. It examines the impact on social standards and addresses potential challenges, such as rising energy prices and the affordability of green technologies, such as electric cars. The chapter aims to illustrate how the green transition, if not carefully considered, can lead to further stratification, reduced purchasing power, and a decline in overall well-being. It provides a holistic perspective on the societal implications of transitioning to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly economy.
