摘要

国家的可持续发展需要同时提高社会福利和减少环境影响。为了跟踪各国在实现这两个目标方面的表现,我们引入并计算了一种名为 "公正过渡分数"(JTS)的新指标,旨在评估各国社会进步的相对可持续性。根据每单位进步对环境影响的内容,我们计算了 161 个国家从 2011 年到 2019 年的公正过渡分数。此外,我们还将综合指标细分为两个主要部分,即 "碳公正过渡得分 "和 "物质公正过渡得分"。结果表明,各国在公正过渡总指标及其组成部分方面都存在显著差异。社会公正过渡表现最佳的国家,如葡萄牙、西班牙和哥斯达黎加,实现了最可持续的社会进步,而社会公正过渡得分最低的国家,要么社会进步不足(最贫穷国家),要么造成了严重的环境破坏(如海湾国家)。贫穷国家社会进步的相对可持续性可以通过提高社会福利,同时限制其环境影响的增长来改善。在较富裕的国家,要改善社会进步,就必须采取更积极的措施,减少对环境的破坏。

Just Transition Score: Measuring the relative sustainability of social progress

Sustainable development of countries necessitates parallel enhancements of societal wellbeing and reductions of environmental impacts. To track how countries perform to achieve these twin objectives, we introduce and calculate a novel metric called the Just Transition Score (JTS) that aims to assess countries' relative sustainability of social progress. Based on the content of environmental impacts per unit of progress, we calculate the JTS for 161 countries from 2011 to 2019. Additionally, we break down the aggregate indicator into two main components, namely the Carbon Just Transition Score, and the Material Just Transition Score. The results show significant disparities across countries both in terms of the overall JTS and its components. Countries with the best JTS performance, such as Portugal, Spain, and Costa Rica achieve the most sustainable social progress, while countries with the lowest JTS scores either fall short on social progress (the poorest countries) or create high environmental damage (such as the Gulf countries). The relative sustainability of social progress of poorer countries can be improved by increasing societal wellbeing while limiting growth of their environmental impacts. In richer countries, improvements would require more aggressive measures aimed at reducing the extent of environmental damage.
