QUAD editor Richard Lofthouse interviews James Meade Professor of Economics, Professor Hamish Low (Brasenose, 1990)about the UK’s legal commitment to reach net-zero climate emissions by 2050. 

The report is titled Absolute Zero and considers how the UK might attempt to fulfil its climate goal, starting with existing technologies rather than assuming that we will be rescued by a technological silver bullet. 

As a specialist in applied microeconomics Professor Low has valuable and original insights, while the report itself is an extraordinary wake-up call for the UK.
