Learning about sustainability through the example of UNH

Making sense of climate policy

December 17th, 2009 · 1 Comment

Today UNH’s own Stacy VanDeveer (from Political Science) was on E&E TV’s OnPoint in Washington, DC, discussing climate policy in the US, Canada and Mexico. He and co-editor/author Henrik Selin of Boston University recently came out with the new book “Changing Climates in North American Politics: Institutions, Policy Making and Multilevel Governance.”

Watch Stacy’s interview HERE.

As E&E TV describes:

“As the United States debates domestic cap-and-trade legislation, would a North American plan for emissions reduction be a more successful option? During today’s OnPoint, Stacy VanDeveer, an associate professor in the department of political science at the University of New Hampshire and editor of the new book, “Changing Climates in North American Politics: Institutions, Policymaking, and Multilevel Governance,” assesses North American policy responses to climate change. He discusses the potential for using NAFTA for carbon dioxide emissions trading and talks about interaction between the public and private sectors on climate.”

Kudos Stacy!

    Excellent! I’m going to check this out. It never ceases to amaze me how involved the UNH community is at every level.
