However, it is the long-term effects that are the most interesting. The authors argue that the dynamic innovation effect is likely to generate the largest job expansions, as firms invest in research to exploit new low carbon opportunities that generate further investment and job growth that potentially could trigger a fundamental overhaul of the economic system.60 Whilst this latter point is perhaps optimistic and relies heavily on economies adapting and equipping their future workforce with the skills and capacity to achieve this, it does offer some credibility to the view that a “green utopia” is within long-term reach of developed economies. Many of these findings suggest strong growth prospects, often above forecast trend growth rates, which support much of the consensus on the scale of the opportunity.
