Climate change is acknowledged by each of the presidential candidates as one of the most serious challenges facing Americans today, but what does the future hold come November?
In this complimentary, one hour webinar, join Point Carbon's Veronique Bugnion and
- How are the presidential candidates' climate change and carbon emission programs similar? How are they different? - Would either of the two candidates sign the Kyoto Protocol? Would either work for the development of a new global climate change accord? What might such a new accord look like? - What are the implications of these policies for companies in the emissions reduction, renewable energy, online environmental commodity exchange and other sectors of the cleantech industry?
They'll also review the climate change legislation debated by the Senate in early June that would have created a national cap-and-trade scheme for reducing greenhouse gas emissions to 63% below 2005 levels by 2050. Although the bill did not receive the needed votes to move to final consideration, it will certainly be revisited in the future. Veronique and Emilie will discuss what changes might occur to the bill after the election, and how such a bill may affect the cleantech industry and the economy in general.
