Compensating affected parties necessary for rapid coal phase-out but expensive if extended to major emitters

Nature Communications
Coal power phase-out is critical for climate mitigation, yet it harms workers, companies, and coal-dependent regions. We find that more than half of countries that pledge coal phase-out have  “just transition” policies which compensate these actors ...
