It's 2020, and Canada is not on track to meet our targets. To do so, we'll need radical systemic change to how we live and work -and fast. How can we ever achieve this? Top policy analyst and author Seth Klein reveals we can do it now because we've done it before. During the Second World War, Canadian citizens and government remade the economy by retooling factories, transforming their workforce, and making the war effort a common cause for all Canadians to contribute to. Klein demonstrates how wartime thinking and community efforts can be repurposed today for Canada's own Green New Deal. He shares how we can create jobs and reduce inequality while tackling our climate obligations for a climate neutral-or even climate zero-future. From enlisting broad public support for new economic models, to job creation through investment in green infrastructure, Klein shows us a bold, practical policy plan for Canada's sustainable future. More than this: A Good War offers a remarkably hopeful message for how we can meet the defining challenge of our lives. COVID-19 has brought a previously unthinkable pace of change to the world-one which demonstrates our ability to adapt rapidly when we're at risk. Many recent changes are what Klein proposes in these very pages. The world can, actually, turn on a dime if necessary. This is the blueprint for how to do it. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Environmental policy|zCanada. 650 0 Climate change mitigation|xEconomic aspects|zCanada. 650 0 Sustainable development|zCanada. 650 0 Environmental economics|zCanada. 650 0 Economic policy|xEnvironmental aspects|zCanada. 650 0 Climatic changes|xGovernment policy|zCanada. 650 0 Environmental policy|zCanada|xCitizen participation. 650 0 Climate change mitigation|zCanada|xCitizen participation. 700 1 Cleland, John. 710 2 hoopla digital. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 13569904?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ ecw_9781773056319_180.jpeg
