The Future of Carbon Pricing: Examining 2019's New Proposals
Understanding the nuances of the many carbon pricing plans introduced so far this year
Event Details
A flurry of new federal carbon pricing proposals have been released this summer, adding to the chorus of climate plans being proposed in advance of the 2020 elections. Resources for the Future (RFF) has been at the forefront of analyzing many of these proposals, and has captured that information in a greatly expanded version of our popular Carbon Pricing Calculator.
On September 20, 2019, Marc Hafstead, Director of RFF’s Carbon Pricing Initiative, showcased the new calculator and hosted a discussion with a bipartisan set of panelists about the various policy proposals: what they aim to achieve, why they are structured as they are, and how they differ.
