Sir Nicholas Stern, FBA (born 22 April 1946) is a British economist and academic. In July 2005, he was appointed to conduct reviews on the economics of climate change and of development, which led to the publication of the Stern Review. Stern describes climate change as an economic externality and therefore addressing this externality should allow market forces to develop low carbon technologies.
