Which stakeholder group is described as able to enforce carbon taxes and renewable energy targets while subsidizing green technology?

• A. Intergovernmental Organizations
• B. Governments
• C. NGOs
• D. Corporations

Answer: (A)

Intergovernmental organizations can coordinate and enforce climate policy on an international scale, and they play a major role in funding and shaping priority actions across countries. They often negotiate treaties and agreements that set carbon reduction targets, carbon pricing principles, and renewable energy goals for member states. Through these international commitments, IGOs monitor progress, provide technical and financial support, and can condition aid or access to funding on meeting certain environmental requirements. That combination of setting standards, monitoring compliance, and channeling subsidies makes them the group most capable of both enforcing carbon taxes and renewable energy targets and subsidizing green technology on a broader, cross-border level.
