Topic - Green New Deal

The Green New Deal (GND) is any of several proposed economic stimulus programs in the United States that aim to address both economic inequality and climate change. The name refers to the New Deal, a combination of social and economic reforms and public works projects undertaken by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in response to the Great Depression. Supporters of a Green New Deal advocate a combination of Roosevelt's economic approach with modern ideas such as renewable energy and resource efficiency. One small-scale example of a Green New Deal-type policy is tax incentives for solar panels, implemented in the United States in 2008. - Source: Wikipedia
