Fwd: Strategies to Reach Net-Zero Emissions by 2050

[David Kline]

Hi Social Media folks,

This paper by the National Academies is just out and calls for a national carbon price together with complementary policies. It's worth amplifying. I have a tweet about it scheduled for 10 AM tomorrow from my personal account. I do not see a tweet from the Academies yet, but expect there will be one soon.

Best,

David

View this email in your browser Strategies to Reach Net-Zero Emissions by 2050 World leaders are gathering in Glasgow, Scotland this week at COP26 to discuss how to achieve "net-zero" emissions by 2050 to slow climate change and avoid the most severe impacts. To do that, we must reduce carbon dioxide emissions in a way that creates jobs and ensures an equitable transition.   A number of expert reports from the National Academies have assessed the state of the science on topics related to the net-zero goal. Learn more in our new resource, which provides an at-a-glance look at findings and U.S. policy-relevant advice from those reports.
