Carbon Pricing Proposals in Todays Congress, with Marc Hafstead
Raimi and Ladislaw talk with Hafstead about a raft of recent legislative proposals in the US Congress to price greenhouse gas emissions: the major design elements of these bills, including the proposed carbon price; how revenues are used; how border adjustments can help protect US manufacturers; the political viability of these different proposals, including which policy elements might help build support for carbon price; and whether other policy approaches, such as a Clean Energy Standard, stand more of a chance in today's political environment.\n\xa0\nReferences and recommendations:\nThe Wizard and the Prophet\xa0by Charles C.
