For a look at what several recently-appointed federal environmental and economic officials (who happen to be RFF alums) consider top priorities in planning climate mitigation policy, check out this new RFF discussion paper, produced while Aldy and Pizer were senior fellows at RFF.
In it RFF Senior Fellows Alan Krupnick and Ian Parry, along with Joseph Aldy (on leave from RFF, now serving in the Obama Administration), William Pizer (now working for the Treasury Department), and recently-nominated Energy Information Administration Administrator Richard Newell outline current thinking about how policies should be structured, what goals should be, and what instruments could help policymakers reach those goals.
