Harvard Speaks on Climate Change: Federal Climate Rules - A Status Report

The Salata Institute for Climate and Sustainability and the Vice Provost Office for Advances in Learning present Harvard Speaks on Climate Change, a series featuring Harvard faculty working on different dimensions of the climate challenge. In this session, Professor Jody Freeman will discuss the EPA’s greenhouse gas rules for the auto, power, and oil and gas sectors and the SEC’s final rule on climate-related financial risk. Professor Freeman will also explore if these rules were weaker than expected and what lies ahead in the courts. Vice Provost for Climate and Sustainability and Director of the Salata Institute, Jim Stock, will host. This series is part of the collection of VPAL Signature Events and is co-sponsored by the Harvard Alumni Association.

Regulations can be dodged and weakened over time. They are not a market signal, businesses assume they can hold them up and roll them back in courts, so they ignore them. Regulations also raise energy prices but don't provide relief to families. The fossil fuel industry likes CSS because it lets them kick the can down the road for decades more. Far better to simlly charge a cash-back carbon polluters fee. Put a steadily rising carbon fee on the production and import of coal, oil, and gas, rebate the money collected to all households on an equal basis each month, and use a CBAM to protect US businesses and motivate other countries to match our carbon price. Economists call this the gold-standard climate policy approach. Learn about Carbon Fee and Dividend with a CBAM. Then join Citizens Climate Lobby and learn how to help create the political will to enable Congress to pass legislation to do it. Thanks!

- We live in the same climate as it was 5 million years ago - I have an explanation regarding the cause of the climate change and global warming, it is the travel of the universe to the deep past since May 10, 2010. Each day starting May 10, 2010 takes us 1000 years to the past of the universe. Today April 16, 2024 the state of our universe is the same as it was 5 million and 90 thousand years ago. On october 13, 2026 the state of our universe will be at the point 6 million years in the past. On june 04, 2051 the state of our universe will be at the point 15 million in the past. On june 28, 2092 the state of our universe will be at the point 30 million years in the past. On april 02, 2147 the state of our universe will be at the point 50 million years in the past. The result is that the universe is heading back to the point where it started and today we live in the same climate as it was 5 million years ago. Mohamed BOUHAMIDA.
