About this listen
Does the fear of competition law enforcement inhibit collaboration in tackling climate change? How does competition law address monopolies abusing their dominance? Is it more lenient towards mergers that creative efficiencies in sustainability? Can we think about sustainability in terms of consumer welfare for it to fit into existing scholarship on competition law?
In this episode, Executive Editor Alexia Armstrong interviews Professor Simon Holmes to answer these questions and more, bridging the seemingly conflicting aims of encouraging competition and mitigating climate change.
Simon Holmes is a visiting professor at the University of Oxford, teaching the post-graduate competition law course. He is also a member of the UK Competition Appeal Tribunal and an advisor to the NGO ClientEarth. For the past few years, he has focused on the relationship between sustainability, climate change and competition law.
