Green Economics

Miriam Kennet is an expert on green economics, after having obtained Bachelor's and Master's degrees in areas including economics and environmental science, and editing the "International Journal of Green Economics." [28] As the co-founder, director and CEO of the Green Economics Institute, she publishes several books, articles and magazines every year centered around green economics research. [29] According to Kennet, a definition of green economics is:

"Green Economics is the green movement's challenge to main stream orthodoxy in economics and it is gaining ground globally and in the corridors of power as the best alternative to solving climate change, the credit crunch, poverty and biodiversity losses. It is about providing reclaiming the practices and policies of economics, for all people everywhere, nature, other species, the planet and its systems. It is about provisioning for the needs, impacts, effects and responsibilities, for everyone and everything on the planet."[30]
