Developing a Low Carbon Economy
Manchester’s Mini-Stern
The Manchester City Region has undertaken pioneering work with regard to
the development of a low carbon economy. In 2008, the Manchester City
Region commissioned its own response to the challenges laid down by the
Stern review. This study, dubbed ‘The Manchester Mini-Stern’ sought to answer
the key questions about the economic impacts of climate change legislation,
policy and regulation on the City Region level economy. It also seeks to identify
where interventions at a City Regional level can make a difference to our
economic growth and carbon emission trajectory.
