Climate Policy in the Trump Era

Event Summary

Where is U.S. climate policy headed in the Trump Administration? Is there a heightened role for state and local governments in the new political environment? How will the new administration engage with the international climate negotiations? These are a few of the many questions that have arisen since the election of Donald J. Trump last November. In this talk, Dr. Metcalf will provide his views on some of these questions and assess the areas of greatest concern as well as possible opportunities for constructive engagement over the next four years.
