Climate change is at the top of the political agenda. Governments are promising to do much more to move from a fossil fuel economy to one based on renewable energies and greater efficiency. But there is a world of difference between knee-jerk reactions and well-thought-out change for long-term climate and societal gain.

This is where FORESIGHT Climate & Energy comes in with its in-depth articles and expert opinions on the solutions and remaining barriers to a clean energy economy.
