Resources
Because the Climate Policy Design Pro-series
will condense and cover a large territory in a short time, this resource list
provides links to more detailed reports on specific design considerations.
The syllabus
for Energy Resources 291, the graduate level companion course offered
at UC-Berkeley, contains an extensive list of reports and articles organized by
topic in approximately the same order as they will be covered in the
Pro-Series.
Introduction to Climate Change
Because the pro-series is designed to start
above a “101” level discussion, all participants are encouraged to take
advantage of ample online resources to get comfortable with basic frames for
the challenge. Even weathered veterans
are likely to benefit from the latest materials on these sites.
