Climate Change and the World Bank Group: Phase I - An Evaluation of World Bank Win-Win Energy Policy Reforms

By World Bank Group and Kenneth M. Chomitz

Climate change threatens to derail development, even as development pumps ever-greater quantities of carbon dioxide into an atmosphere already polluted with two centuries of Western emissions. The World Bank, with a newly-articulated Strategic Framework on Development and Climate Change, must confront these entangled threats in helping its clients to carve out a sustainable growth path. This evaluation assesses the Bank's experience with key win-win policies in the energy sector.
