Abstract

This report seeks to address the research gap around the associated opportunities for both: the Scottish Government’s ability to achieve its climate and adaptation targets, as well as its ambitions for economic prosperity, jobs, trade and investment. While the economic opportunities for Scotland are reflected in relevant policies and strategies, this report provides a deeper and more consistent understanding of the specific nature of those economic opportunities with view to focusing effective interventions and investment.
