Abstract

The Russian war on Ukraine is providing the push for radical shifts in many countries’ energy mix, making green policies no longer a prerogative of young urban cosmopolitan elites. Alessio Terzi believes climate despair is understandable, but likely to be misplaced. The oil crisis in the 1970s is a good example of a world event that pushed countries to adopt low-carbon solutions, such as France’s embrace of nuclear energy and the Netherland’s unprecedented push towards bicycles.
