Speaker series: Integrating emissions pricing with other climate policies
Event Information
About this event
We are excited to announce the next expert in our international speaker series, Professor Frank Jotzo – who will explore why using emissions pricing alongside other climate policies is important, to set us on a pathway to net zero emissions by 2050.
What: an open Zoom with Professor Frank Jotzo, and Commissioners Catherine Leining and Andy Reisinger
When: 12-1pm, Wednesday 15 June
How: register for a free ticket and join us on the day
Join us to find out why the Emissions Trading Scheme alone won’t get us to net zero emissions – and why emissions pricing is needed alongside a portfolio of other climate policies to address climate change. Frank will give us an insight into what’s happening overseas when it comes to other climate policies. We will look at how these policies should be designed to be compatible with emissions pricing to deliver the emission reductions we need to see.
