Carbon Prices at Universities? Insights from Yale University’s Experience
March 29, 2018, 8:00 am – 5:00 pm EDT
In 2017, Yale University adopted an internal carbon charge across its campus, becoming one of the first universities in the United States to do so. Under Yale’s pioneering program, buildings throughout the university are charged $40 per ton of carbon dioxide that is emitted as a result of the energy they consume. On March 29th, the Guarini Center will host Casey Pickett, Director of Yale’s Carbon Challenge, for a conversation about the lessons learned from Yale’s early experiences with carbon pricing and whether such a scheme is appropriate for adoption at other universities throughout the country.
