Achieving a sustainable balance between human activity and the natural environment while maintaining economic growth will require innovation. We need to make economic growth cleaner, control environmental externalities, and protect human populations from environmental change. To identify and explore these innovations, LSE Environment Week and Camp bring together researchers from all fields of economics - including development, macroeconomics, industrial organisation, public, finance, labour, trade, urban, theory, behavioural, and political economy - as well as environmental, energy, and climate experts.

The Economics of Environment and Energy Programme (EEE), International Growth Centre (IGC) and Programme on Innovation and Diffusion (POID) within the LSE Economics Department host the third Environment Week. Working with partners at the School and worldwide to encourage economists from all fields to work on environmental issues and to connect this work to policy change.
