Conquering Cost: Evaluating Optimal Policy Approaches to the Cost of Climate Change
As the U.S. Senate continues work on a comprehensive legislative vehicle, concerns about “cost” remain central to the discussion. Cost as a term serves as an umbrella for a number of issues, such as the overall effect of climate policy on the nation’s gross domestic product and the effect of policy on the competitiveness of sensitive industries. To explore this issue more deeply, the Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions is holding a half-day, invitation-only workshop on Monday, October 5, 2009.
