In 2009, the Environmental Protection Agency's Endangerment Finding labeled greenhouse gas emissions a threat to public health and welfare. Now, with mounting empirical evidence, improved climate models, and real-world observations, the EPA is reconsidering that determination. New data reveals a more nuanced climate reality than in 2009.Climate policy continues to carry enormous economic and legal implications, and reconsidering the Endangerment Finding is both justified and necessary.Panel: The Failures of Carbon Pricing and Associated Policy ImplicationsKevin D.

In this episode of Climate Positive, host Gil Jenkins sits down with Mike Berners-Lee—author, professor, and leading expert on sustainability—to explore the central message of his latest book, "A Climate of Truth." In a world spiraling deeper into climate, ecological, and social crises, Mike argues that the most powerful lever we have isn't new technology—it's honesty. The conversation unpacks why truth in politics, media, and business is essential to breaking the deadlock on climate action and building a livable future.Links:Purchase “A Climate of Truth: Why We Need It and How To Get It” (Published April 2025)Mike Berners-Lee on LinkedInMike Berners-Lee WebsiteEpisode recorded March 26, 2025 Email your feedback to Chad, Gil, Hilary, and Guy at climatepositive@hasi.com.

Since the federal government scrapped its carbon tax, Quebec stands alone as the only province with its own price on carbon. Now the Quebec government is facing calls from some corners to eliminate it, in order to bring down the price at the pump. But some experts say that would put us even further from our climate goals. And some Quebecers are still trying to wrap their heads around what exactly we're paying — and where the money goes.

Danny Cullenward, vice chair of California’s Independent Emissions Market Advisory Committee, explores the legal and policy challenges that threaten the future of the state’s carbon cap-and-trade market. --- For more than a decade, California’s cap-and-trade program has been a key component of the state’s broader efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and achieve a net-zero carbon economy by 2045. Yet the future of California’s cap-and-trade program is uncertain. The program is currently authorized only through 2030, and significant debate exists over whether its administrator, the California Air Resources Board, has the legal authority to extend it beyond that date. Danny Cullenward, a senior fellow with the Kleinman Center and vice chair of California’s Independent Emissions Market Advisory Committee, explores the political and legal questions surrounding the program’s future. He also explains how uncertainty about the program’s longevity could slow investments in clean infrastructure and limit the market’s effectiveness in driving down the state’s climate emissions. Danny Cullenward is a senior fellow with the Kleinman Center, and the vice chair of California’s Independent Emissions Market Advisory Committee.

Andrew Jones, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Climate Interactive joins us to explore groundbreaking climate simulation tools shaping global policy decisions. We dive into Climate Interactive's En ROADS model, used by Congress members and educators worldwide, and we discuss its role in making climate science actionable. Andrew highlights effective climate solutions, challenges less impactful ones, and emphasizes the importance of reducing fossil fuel use and protecting forests. Tune in for a deep dive into how data-driven simulations bridge the gap between climate knowledge and action.

With the election behind us, we'll have a clearer picture of the opportunities and constraints the new Congress may present for implementing a carbon price. Join Dr. Danny Richter, CCL's Policy Fellow as he walks us through the lay of the land and how carbon pricing policy could evolve and tie in with tax policy reform.

Hear from Gordon Bennett, Managing Director at ICE, as we dive into theory and practice of carbon pricing and its important role in driving the transition to net zero. Carbon pricing is the poster child of market-based solutions to climate change. The principle is simple: by assigning a cost to greenhouse gas emissions, we incentivize polluters to emit less, and to do so in the most cost-effective way. But there's a significant gap between the theory and practice. Currently, only 24% of global emissions – about 12.8 gigatonnes – are covered by pricing mechanisms such as carbon taxes or cap-and-trade. On top of that, just half a gigatonne was traded in voluntary markets last year. Clearly, there's still a long way to go. In this episode, we explore the carbon pricing gap, including: Why it exists, what's needed to close it; The integrity challenges facing voluntary carbon markets, and how to address them; And how central counterparties can help drive the transition by ensuring transparent, reliable pricing.

Greg Brady focuses in on the TTC and Rogers pulling the plug on free WIFI on subway platforms.. anyone who tried to access the free WIFI knows the service stunk.. but did it have to? We speak with city councillor Josh Matlow about this – AND – get his thoughts on the Mayor touting the city's congestion plan – Mayor Chow says it's working.. but do Torontonians feel the same way? Next, Nolan Quinn, MP for Stormont–Dundas–South Glengarry and Minister of Colleges and Universities, about his new role.. he's only a few weeks on the job as minister of colleges after a cabinet shuffle.. You'll remember, this happened after Minister Todd Smith, who was moved to the education file, resigned for the public sector.. we ask Minister Quinn what his goals for this file are – and the challenges he faces, particularly with international students. Lastly, Mike Van Soelen, Crisis communications expert with Oyster Group and we were talking about a number of issues, including NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh signaling he'll oppose the Liberals carbon pricing – this comes just after breaking up with the liberals over the supply and confidence deal.

“One of the big differences between Canada and the United States on climate policy spending broadly is that unlike the United States, Canada has a national carbon pricing system. So, we have a carbon pricing system that sets a national minimum standard. There's a retail price for retail fuels, including gasoline for cars. And there's also an industrial price that applies directly to industry. In some provinces, Quebec has its own cap and trade system that's actually linked with California's, and that is a system that meets Canada's minimum standard for carbon pricing.” Claire Seaborn on Electric Ladies Podcast Canada has been ahead of the U.S. on some climate and energy policies, including having a price on carbon, which many U.S. politicians have resisted for years. What can we learn from Canada's experience? A lot. Listen to Claire Seaborn, who until a few months ago was the Chief of Staff to Canada's Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, explain Canada's energy and climate policies and what the U.S. – and other countries – can learn from their experience, in this fascinating discussion with Electric Ladies host Joan Michelson. She also shares insightful career advice. You'll hear about: What exactly Canadian energy and climate policies are and how they are working. How Canada developed its carbon pricing policies and how difference provinces are implementing them. The critical role of minerals in the energy transition and climate solutions, and how to manage this complex geopolitical issue. Plus, insightful career advice, such as… “For anyone, women especially who are interested in the energy and climate space, I would say that you shouldn't feel that you need to choose between the public sector, the private sector, and the nonprofit sector…. If you want to, and I've done it, you can just bounce between them. And that seems to be increasingly more acceptable and it's also really, really useful…. I've been able to continue to build my expertise in the energy and climate space, but from multiple different perspectives.…So my advice would be to just not feel that you need to pick one of those lanes and, and to take the risk to bounce between those different segments of our economy.” Claire Seaborn on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here.

In some parts of Canada, carbon pricing is a four-letter word.Now, one province is taking a dramatic stand against the federal government's carbon levy. Saskatchewan's government says it's refusing to remit carbon tax funds to Ottawa.“This is a decision that we do not take lightly and we recognize that it may come with consequences,” SaskEnergy Minister Dustin Duncan said in video posted to social media announcing the move last week.What consequences could Saskatchewan face? Will other provinces follow suit? And what could this mean for the Trudeau government's controversial policy?GUEST: Cormac Mac Sweeney, Parliament Hill Reporter for CityNews We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes.

Carbon pricing is steadily emerging as one of the most viable solutions to reducing global emissions, but shedding its contentious past to build a global consensus is still a work in progress. Economist Ian Parry has championed the idea of carbon pricing long before it was fashionable- or even considered feasible by more than a handful of countries. Parry is the principal environmental fiscal policy expert in the IMF Fiscal Affairs Department and has made it his mission to present- on behalf of the institution, the benefits of incorporating climate risks into the cost of doing business through a carbon tax.

In this OIES podcast, Hasan Muslemani talks to Hannah Hauman, Global Head of Carbon Trading at Trafigura, who is lead author on their latest publication entitled ‘The creation of a global carbon market: A taxonomy of carbon pricing under Article 6'. They discuss key pillars of carbon markets including different forms of carbon pricing mechanisms, […] The post OIES Podcast – A Taxonomy of Carbon Pricing appeared first on Oxford Institute for Energy Studies.

The issues around climate change, investing and risk are vexing. This ESG pro takes us back to basics

As we await key court decisions on Pennsylvania's participation in the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, a refresher on what RGGI is, how it works, and why it would be a game-changer for Pennsylvania. Our interview with Franz Litz, who helped launch the initiative almost 20 years ago, originally aired in 2019.

There's a suggestion that pricing carbon might not be the only answer to deal with climate change.   New research shows that relying on the Emissions Trading Scheme alone to de-carbonise would trigger petrol prices to soar by 60 cents a litre.  Massey University Professor Robert McLachlan told Mike Hosking that making the carbon price go so high is unfair on consumers.  He says when they looked at the international evidence, they found the ETS does work a bit but it can't reduce emissions alone.

New Zealand's carbon pricing system, the Emissions Trading Scheme, is a central tool in the country's climate change policy. Industries covered by the ETS must give the government a carbon unit for each tonne of emissions they produce. But the ETS has come under scrutiny after the government declined to follow Climate Commission advice late last year, to take action to keep the price of carbon units sufficiently high. The price plunged from nearly $90 to below $40 last month. After the government announced proposed changes to the ETS a fortnight ago, broadly in line with the Climate Commission's advice, the unit price recovered somewhat, to around $57 dollars. How do market based carbon pricing schemes work around the world ? Ian Parry is an international expert on climate mitigation strategies including carbon markets as Principal Environmental Fiscal Policy Expert in the IMF's Fiscal Affairs Department in Washington DC, and about to visit New Zealand.

In this podcast we interviewed Prof. Ottmar Edenhofer, Professor of the Economics of Climate Change at the Technical University of Berlin, Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK), and Director of the Mercator Research Institute on Global Commons and Climate Change in Berlin (MCC). In this interview we ask Prof. Edenhofer about the social implications of the EU ETS II and about the Social Climate Fund. One take-away is that using the ETS revenues for social compensation will be key to sustain public support for carbon pricing. The interview was led by Marie Raude and Lea Heinrich, Research Associates at the Climate Team of the Florence School of Regulation.

In this episode, Paula DiPerna, a policy expert and author, discusses her new book "Pricing the Priceless," which proposes a solution to the damaging cycle of overconsumption and pollution. She argues that we should pay for the environmental services we consume daily to protect our planet and prosper. Join host Alan Stoga for this thought-provoking discussion on solving the climate crisis and valuing our most precious assets.

Ruth Abraham and Lila Powell, interns for Citizens Climate Radio, take over the show, and take a deep dive into the world of carbon pricing.  To see our full notes and full transcript visit our show page.  Citizens Climate Lobby's Carbon Pricing page states: “A strong, economy-wide price on carbon could reduce America's carbon pollution by 50% by 2030, putting us on track to reach net zero [carbon production] by 2050.” Carbon pricing is an economic solution to climate change. When Marshall Saunders first envisioned the creation of CCL, Cap-and-Trade was the primary way lawmakers heard about carbon pricing. But through relentless messaging and volunteer lobbying, the discussion has shifted to carbon fee and dividend.  The ultimate goal? Incentivize both businesses and individuals to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. Citizens' Climate Lobby advocates for a carbon fee and dividend, an economy-wide fee that is then returned to citizens. At the point of extraction, a fee will be placed on fossil fuels. This collected store of cash will then be distributed back to individuals and in turn, flow through the economy, incentivizing both businesses and people to slowly but surely rely on renewables.  Naomi Shimberg is a self-described aspiring economist who hopes to research the design of environmental and energy policy.  A recent graduate at Yale with a B.A. in Ethics, Politics, and Economics, Shimberg was the senior producer at Pricing Nature where she produced and hosted episodes of Pricing Nature, a podcast on the economics of climate change. She spends her time explaining externalities and the infamous  “social cost of carbon.” Shimberg also establishes that environmental inequities are essential to determining an appropriate climate price. Furthermore, she mentions that while it is efficient in reducing pollution it's not an entirely equitable tool.  Nokwanda Maseko is now a Senior Economist at Trade and Industrial Policy Strategies' with a background in development economics. Nokwanda conducts economic research, with a focus on industrial policy, trade, and climate change. Gender and the Just Transition in South Africa is a topic Nokwanda enjoys and is able to work on professionally. In this episode, Nokwanda says that although carbon pricing can help reduce emissions and promote innovation, it can also potentially increase costs for marginalized communities. Nokwanda discusses how general development as well as the transportation, agriculture, and energy production sectors in South Africa have several factors to consider when envisioning a green and equitable future.  The benefits of carbon pricing include but are not limited to affordable clean energy, saved lives due to the restoration of clean air, and the innovation of American businesses.  Nerd Corner   Dana Nuccitelli highlights climate research (and makes it understandable) for fellow nerds and the nerd curious! In this episode Dana explains the basics behind addressing pollution and equity through carbon fee and dividend.  Check out Dana's post about how far and fast a price on carbon can drive down emissions within the United States here.  Good News Story Citizens Climate Radio host, Peterson Toscano, shares good news about the Conservative Climate Caucus in the House of Representatives.
