Expanded Course Description
PPPM 340 Climate Change Policy goes beyond describing what's happening to focus on designing solutions and appropriate responses to climate change. What exactly could we do to mitigate climate change? The beginning of this course will cover some of the fundamentals of climate change effects and climate change policy. The remainder will focus on examining the design and effectiveness of specific policies. Some topics that will be covered are cap-and-trade, carbon tax, carbon offsets, energy efficiency, renewable electricity, alternative fuels, the endangerment finding, nuclear power, and geoengineering.
The various policy interventions are examined at different levels, from international solutions to federal, state, and local policies, and finally, administrative implementation. Roles of individuals vis-à-vis climate change policy strategies are explored.
