Synopsis "The Growth Story of the 21st Century: The Economics and Opportunity of Climate Action"

The world stands at a crossroads. The next decade will determine whether we avoid climate, biodiversity, and economic catastrophe - or unlock a new era of sustainable, resilient, and inclusive growth. The Growth Story of the 21st Century challenges the outdated idea that we must choose between climate action and development. Instead, it presents a compelling case for a transformation that delivers both prosperity and a healthier planet.Drawing on economics, finance, policy, politics, and behavioural science, Nicholas Stern explores why this transformation is essential, what it entails, and how we can achieve it. He revisits the insights of the Stern Review two decades on and sets out a new research agenda for economics and the social sciences.This is a story of optimism - about how rapid technological advances, including digitisation and AI, can drive change at scale. But it does not shy away from the immense challenges ahead. With clear and practical strategies for national and international action, this book is a call to leaders, businesses, and individuals alike: the future is in our hands, and delay is the riskiest option of all.

Nicholas Stern es un economista británico reconocido por su trabajo en el campo de la economía del cambio climático. Nació el 22 de abril de 1946 en Londres, Reino Unido. Estudió en la Universidad de Cambridge y posteriormente en la Universidad de Oxford, donde desarrolló una sólida formación en economía.

A lo largo de su carrera, Stern ha ocupado importantes cargos académicos y políticos. Fue profesor en la London School of Economics (LSE) y también economista jefe del Banco Mundial entre 2000 y 2003. Su contribución más influyente es el “Informe Stern” (2006), un estudio clave que analiza el impacto económico del cambio climático y sostiene que actuar de manera temprana para reducir las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero es mucho menos costoso que enfrentar las consecuencias futuras.

Además, ha asesorado a gobiernos y organizaciones internacionales en políticas climáticas y desarrollo sostenible. Fue nombrado caballero en 2004 por sus servicios a la economía. Stern es considerado una figura fundamental en la integración de la economía con la política ambiental, influyendo en la forma en que los gobiernos abordan el calentamiento global y la sostenibilidad.
