Why the energy transition must be more than a fuel source replacement, and how we can seize the opportunity of the transition to build a more just future for all.
To meet the greenhouse gas emissions reductions needed to stave off the worst impacts of climate change, a transition away from fossil fuels must occur, as quickly as possible. But there are many unknowns when it comes to moving from theory to implementation for such a large-scale energy transition, to say nothing of whether this transition will be "just." In A Just Transition for All, J. Mijin Cha--a seasoned climate policy researcher who also works with advocacy organizations and unions--offers a comprehensive analysis of how we can actualize a just transition in the U.S. context and enact transformational changes that meaningfully improve people's lives.
Cha provides a novel governance framework called the "Four+ Pillars," formulated from original research to provide a way to move from theory to practice. The "Pillars" framework includes a novel analysis that guides readers in understanding how to formulate effective just transition policies, what makes them just or unjust, and, similarly, what makes transition just and unjust. The framework also combines theoretical discussions with original empirical research and provides insights into perceptions of just transition. Grounded in real-world perspectives that make the case for policies that advance a just transition for all, not just fossil fuel workers, Cha charts the path forward to an equitable and sustainable future that no longer depends on fossil fuels.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
為什麼能源轉型必須超越燃料來源的替代，以及我們如何把握轉型的機會，為所有人建立一個更公正的未來。
Cha 提出了名為「四大支柱」（Four+ Pillars）的新治理框架，這是基於原始研究而制定的，旨在提供一種從理論到實踐的轉變方式。「支柱」框架包括一個新穎的分析，指導讀者理解如何制定有效的公正轉型政策，什麼使其公正或不公正，以及類似地，什麼使轉型公正或不公正。該框架還結合了理論討論與原始實證研究，並提供了對公正轉型的看法。Cha 以現實世界的觀點為基礎，主張推進所有人（不僅僅是化石燃料工人）的公正轉型政策，並描繪出通往一個不再依賴化石燃料的公平和可持續未來的道路。
