Gorman Lecture 1: Economic Policy to Combat Climate Change
Gorman Lecture 1: Economic Policy to Combat Climate Change
How can economic policy be used to address global warming? The first lecture will cover the basic natural-science background, collected into a set of important “stylized facts”. Taken together, these facts strongly suggest that we should limit the emissions of greenhouse gases significantly, but leave open how to best achieve this goal. The second lecture will address the “how” and argue that economic analysis offers very useful tools to this end. It will thus use these tools to compare the pros and cons of different kinds of policy suggestions and end with a discussion of the climate policy strategies adopted in the EU and in the U.S.
