Event Details
Through 2020, there’s been a hope for a “silver lining” and a “light at the end of the tunnel.” As we attempt to look beyond the pandemic, the question arises, “What is the path to recovery?”
The green economy has been gaining traction over the last decade as municipalities and governments worldwide have re-evaluated how they “do business” in respect to the environment. From the Paris (Climate) Agreement to “Green New Deals” that have been adopted to policy platforms, the green economy is shaping the future of local, state, and global economies. Now, nearing a year into this pandemic, the green economy is being positioned as part of the solution to an economic recovery. However, the question still remains, “Is the green economy THE path to recovery?”
We’ll take a look at how the move to a more sustainable and renewable economy and environment is impacting the opportunities of tomorrow. And, address concerns on whether it will be enough as we try to jumpstart economic development in our region.
The LAEDC is focusing on timely research to provide updated regional insights that will inform the green economy’s decision-makers about the state of the industry and where the opportunities are; and, how recovering from the current pandemic will affect future growth.
During these unprecedented times, the future can be intimidating, but the green economy may serve as the “light at the end of the tunnel” as we look ahead.
