{{For|policy proposals|Green New Deal}}"A Green New Deal" was a report released on July 21, 2008 by the Green New Deal Group and published by the New Economics Foundation, which outlines a series of policy proposals to tackle global warming, the current financial crisis, and peak oil.[1] The report calls for the re-regulation of finance and taxation, and major government investment in renewable energy sources. Its full title is: A Green New Deal: Joined-up policies to solve the triple crunch of the credit crisis, climate change and high oil prices.[2] Recommendations - Government-led investment in energy efficiency and microgeneration which would make 'every building a powerstation'.
- The creation of thousands of green jobs to enable low-carbon infrastructure reconstruction.
- A windfall tax on the profits of oil and gas companies - as has been established in Norway - so as to provide revenue for government spending on renewable energy and energy efficiency.
- Developing financial incentives for green investment and reduced energy usage.
- Changes to the UK's financial system, including the reduction of the Bank of England's interest rate, once again to support green investment.
- Large financial institutions - 'mega banks' - to be broken up into smaller units and green banking.
- The re-regulation of international finance: ensuring that the financial sector does not dominate the rest of the economy. This would involve the re-introduction of capital controls.
- Increased official scrutiny of exotic financial products such as derivatives.
- The prevention of corporate tax evasion by demanding financial reporting and by clamping down on tax havens.[3][4][5]
