Mark Triffitt and Travers McLeod argue in The Conversation that climate change policy is in paralysis:
‘Successfully tackling climate change and other big policy challenges depends on making tangible the intangible crisis of liberal democracy.
‘It means understanding that liberal democracy’s governance machinery – and the static, siloed policy responses generated by such democracies – is no longer fit for purpose.
‘It means coming up with disruptive solutions – like coalitions of countries, cities and companies to tackle climate change – that re-align this machinery with the new order of scale, complexity and speed that defines our 21st-century world.’
