This meeting will focus on the recent McKinsey report "Reducing U.S.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions: How Much at What Cost.” The first presentation
by Rick Duke, NRDC, will provide an overview of the report, explaining how
its analytical framework and quantitative findings can help in developing
climate change policy and research priorities. Marco Castaldi, Columbia
University, will present his results on new methods of transforming waste
to fuel while capturing the carbon for sequestration or recycling.
Subsequent to the two talks, a panel discussion will further discuss the
McKinsey report, its implications, and next steps. Please join us!
