If the government plots a green recovery from coronavirus, the benefits are endless. If it doesn't, we're screwed

Trillions of dollars will be invested by governments in reviving their economies over the next two or three years. If those dollars are well spent, ensuringlow-carbon, nature-restoring prosperity, we have a real chance of avoiding runaway climate change and ecosystem collapse. If they're spent on taking us back to pre-coronavirus days, we're screwed. The climate's screwed. The planet's screwed. And all future generations are screwed. It's as simple - and as binary - as that.
