The impacts of a changing climate are being felt across our country and around the world. Temperatures and sea levels are rising. Extreme weather events – like floods, droughts, wildfires, and hurricanes – are becoming commonplace. And we are at a tipping point. Every country must drastically and quickly reduce greenhouse gas emissions to avert potentially catastrophic warming. How will the United States achieve this monumental task?  Mindy Goldstein will explain the various approaches to addressing climate change that have been suggested by the President, Congress, and federal agencies. Which approaches are politically viable? Which will be the most effective? And which will be the easiest to implement within our existing legal framework?
