Subsidy perpetuates fossil fuel use, undermining climate action despite short-term economic support. | The subsidy provides short-term economic relief to small construction firms, aligning with decent work and industry goals. However, it locks in fossil fuel dependency, directly conflicting with climate action and sustainable energy transitions. The net ethical balance is negative due to the long-term environmental harm outweighing immediate economic benefits.
