- In the last twenty years economics has created much of lasting value and real potential: it has been a very fertile period. But economics has also suffered from what I shall term "collective amnesia" covering whole areas of public policy. I use the example of climate change to illustrate some of the consequences of the amnesia, as well as of the political influence.
