Understanding and Overcoming Gaps in Measurement, Modeling and Regulation to Implement Meaningful Climate Policy
A panel discussion is preceded by three short presentations: Trude Storelvmo explains how aerosols, principally sulfates, mask up to half the effect of greenhouse warming, and how their removal will likely exacerbate warming trends. Dan Lashof, then the Director of Climate and Clean Air Program at the NRDC (and now the Chief Operating Officer of NexGen Climate America) discusses the EPA’s CO2 emissions reduction plans, and Cliff Davidson, presents research on people’s collective responses to efforts to induce them to curb energy consuming behaviors.
