Tariffs and the environment

[Ronnie Lipschutz]

Hey, comrades!

Is there anyone out there who might be able to speak and speculate about the impacts of the new tariffs on the environment?  I know this has been studied and debated for at least 40 years, but we've never had anything quite so large as this.

I'm hoping to do a radio show (soon) on the topic.

Best,

Ronnie
