Debate: Collaborative Environmental Law: Pro And Con, Eric W. Orts, Cary Coglianese
Debate: Collaborative Environmental Law: Pro And Con, Eric W. Orts, Cary Coglianese
All Faculty Scholarship
In this thoughtful and intricate cross-disciplinary debate, Professors Eric W. Orts, of Penn’s Wharton School, and Cary Coglianese, of Penn’s Law School, discuss the benefits and disadvantages of collaborative public policy decision making in the environmental context. It is no exaggeration to say that each year the world grows ever more aware of the nature of the environmental problems we face, and yet critical policy solutions continue to remain beyond the grasp of even the most interested parties. Professor Orts argues that it is time to embrace a different policymaking approach—that of collaborative environmental lawmaking. He argues that "the view …

How On Earth Can We Live Together? In Search Of The Common Sense, N.A.
Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi)
Beginning on June 26, 2008 the Tällberg Forum will gather leaders and thinkers from seventy nations for four days of conversations and workshops related to the opportunities and chal- lenges of global interdependence. Tällberg conversations have increasingly focused on the sys- tems problems emerging from the growing imbalance between nature and human activity. Can we design, govern and manage the sustainable interaction between natural systems and the systems of human activity? Can we negotiate among ourselves the resolution of the planetary crisis? Can we find better ways to integrate the work of governments and institutions with the actions of other …
North American Business Strategies Towards Climate Change, Charles Jones, David Levy
North American Business Strategies Towards Climate Change, Charles Jones, David Levy
Management and Marketing Faculty Publication Series
Business has become a key part of the fabric of global environmental governance, considered here as the network which orders and regulates economic activity and its impacts. We argue that businesses generally are willing to undertake limited measures consistent with a fragmented and weak policy regime. Further, the actions of businesses act to create, shape and preserve that compromised regime. We examine three types of indicators of business responses in North America: ratings by external organizations, commitments regarding emissions, and joint political action. We find business response to be highly ambiguous, with energetic efforts yielding few results.

How The Next Us President Should Slow Global Warming, Elizabeth L. Aldrich
Elizabeth Lokey Aldrich
This paper addresses the energy technologies and policies that the next US president should immediately implement to slow global warming. Increased reliance on renewable energy through deployment of a National Renewable Portfolio Standard will help meet increased electrical demand in a sustainable way. Carbon regulation through an internationally fungible cap and trade system will help make renewables more cost competitive with conventional energy. Mandating National Energy Efficiency Portfolio Standards will also help decrease electrical demand and reduce the need for large investments in new generation. Within the transportation sector, plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles should be rapidly deployed to shift …

All Maxine Goodman Levin School of Urban Affairs Publications
Development and implementation of administrative programs are important steps in the process of change through public law and policy. These programs set the specific mechanisms that will be used to carry out the intent of the law or policy as best an agency can determine. Administrative personnel may involve the general public and stakeholders in program development and implementation in order to improve program design, increasingly used as part of collaborative environmental management strategies. This article examines the use of focus groups as a stakeholder participation method in collaborative program development and implementation processes in two different environmentally-oriented agency …

A Critical Review Of The Energy Policy Act Of 2005'S Treatment Of Hydrogen, Elizabeth L. Aldrich
A Critical Review Of The Energy Policy Act Of 2005'S Treatment Of Hydrogen, Elizabeth L. Aldrich
Elizabeth Lokey Aldrich
The paper analyzes the Energy Policy Act's goals and proposed action in Title VIII, the section dedicated to hydrogen. It then assesses whether or not the resources dedicated to this cause are sufficient to overcome the obstacles facing the commercial use of hydrogen and fuel cells.
Uncertainty, Technical Change, And Policy Models, Erin Baker, Leon Clarke, Jeffrey Keisler, Ekundayo Shittu
Uncertainty, Technical Change, And Policy Models, Erin Baker, Leon Clarke, Jeffrey Keisler, Ekundayo Shittu
College of Management Working Papers and Reports
Both climate change and technical change are uncertain. In this paper we show the importance of including both uncertainties when modeling for policy analysis. We then develop an approach for incorporating uncertainty of technical change into climate change policy analysis. We define and demonstrate a protocol for bottom-up expert assessments about prospects for technologies. We then describe a method for using such assessments to derive a probability distribution over future abatement curves, and to estimate random return functions for technological investment in different areas. Finally, we show how these analytic results could be used in a variety of energy-economic models …
Valuing Renewable Energy In Emerging U.S. Carbon Markets, Elizabeth L. Aldrich
Valuing Renewable Energy In Emerging U.S. Carbon Markets, Elizabeth L. Aldrich
Elizabeth Lokey Aldrich
The inclusion or exclusion of renewable energy generators in emerging U.S. carbon markets could a have profound impact on the whether these markets have the intended effect of reducing overall carbon emissions and whether the voluntary market for green energy will remain or dissolve. This paper explores the allowance distribution schemes for cap-and-trade markets and their impact on renewable energy. The current input-based allocation system proposed for the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative in the Northeastern U.S. prevents renewable energy from contributing to emissions reductions within the market and will preclude green power marketers from advertising carbon offset claims for this …
