What is the main objective of a just energy transition?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Protecting affected workers and communities while shifting to clean energy

It therefore combines emission reduction with retraining, alternative employment, social protection, regional investment and participation in decision-making. It does not require careless or identical timing everywhere. The goal is a fair shift to cleaner energy, so A is correct.
