Leveraging Green Finance for Low-Carbon Energy, Sustainable Economic Development, and Climate Change Mitigation during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Luminița IonescuABSTRACT. This article presents an empirical study carried out to evaluate and analyze green finance for low-carbon energy, sustainable economic development, and climate change mitigation during the COVID-19 pandemic. Building my argument by drawing on data collected from NGFS and UN, I performed analyses and made estimates regarding the transition to a low-carbon/sustainable economy. Data collected from 6,500 respondents are tested against the research model. Descriptive statistics of compiled data from the completed surveys were calculated when appropriate.
