The Economics of Climate Regulatory Policy - Current Findings and Lessons Learned from the Past

March 4 | 3:00 PM - 4:30 PM (add to my calendar)

Bookmark and Share

Climate change policies all involve some form of regulatory change or intervention in the marketplace. Such interventions are often feared because they are new and different. Moreover, new regulations are frequently challenged on the basis of their apparent costs, especially by those representing the industries, activities, or markets to be regulated.    

The discussion of impacts, including monetary costs and benefits, is often complex and may be difficult for non-economists to follow. The object of this webinar is to present the evidence on the costs of reducing carbon emissions in the US and the types of benefits such regulations could generate in clear, easy-to-understand, terms.  

This free webinar is the first in a planned year-long series of joint offerings on aspects of the economics of climate change sponsored by The E.P. Systems Group, Inc. and the Center for Climate Strategies.
