Guardian environment correspondent Fiona Harvey marks 20 years since the Nicholas Stern review, the landmark report warning that unchecked climate change would devastate the global economy. Writing on 28 October 2026, she argues the economic case for urgent climate action was established two decades ago, yet governments and businesses have repeatedly failed to act, prompting renewed debate over why the warnings were not heeded.
Why now: The 20th anniversary of the Stern review is prompting reflection on decades of unheeded climate-economic warnings.
