Our focus will be on the intersection between a carbon price to address greenhouse gas emissions and today's politics at the federal level. Dr. Danny Richter of the Citizens' Climate Lobby will highlight the major features of policies before Congress, and talk about significant shifts in support for this idea both from the business community and from other countries. He will also highlight economic research framing the policy debate and where to find it for those who would like to read more.
