Event: Curious About Carbon Pricing?

SwatchJunkies

March 23, 2015

Do you wonder what carbon pricing means and what the differences are between fees, taxes, shifts, offsets, and caps?

Next Thursday, join Sightline Institute’s senior researcher, Kristin Eberhard, along with Oregon Climate’s executive director, Camila Thorndike, to discuss what it would mean for Oregon to put a price on carbon.

  • What: Curious About Carbon Pricing?
  • Where: Friendly House, Portland, OR (map)
  • When: Thursday, April 2, 7:00 pm
  • Tickets: Free and open to the public

British Columbia implemented a carbon tax in 2008 and California’s cap and trade program began in 2013. The time is now for Oregon and Washington to start cashing in our carbon to complete a West Coast dedicated to a clean future.
