Research Interests:
Jessica Green’s work focuses broadly on climate governance and transnational regulation. She examines how non-state actors—including firms and NGOs—shape global environmental outcomes, investigates the rise of private authority in climate policy, and explores the effectiveness of mechanisms such as carbon markets and net-zero targets. Her recent projects analyze the political economy of green industrial policy and the governance challenges posed by emerging technologies like carbon capture and deep-sea mining.
Publication Trends:
Across 2020–2025 her articles address urgent policy debates: the limits of carbon pricing, the pitfalls of carbon offsets, and the institutional reforms needed to accelerate decarbonization. Collectively, these works emphasize governance innovation, equity, and the need to move beyond market-centric solutions toward more robust regulatory frameworks.
