Harvard Link
Yesterday, the GEP Center got it's first (known) external link, thanks to Bill Hogan. It's from http://www.hks.harvard.edu/hepg/index.html to http://global-energy.org/lib/GEPCpapers/09-05, which is the Beyond Kyoto page. Also, I'd like to thank Peter Cramton for becoming a Senior Advisor on November 12, and Dan Kirshner for becoming one on November 20, 2009. |
"Global Carbon Pricing" Completed
After receiving comments from Paul Joskow on a first draft we completed revisions and re-posted the paper. Now subtitle: A Better Kind of Commitment. This version emphasizes that the paper is suggesting a new kind of international commitment, which avoids the pitfalls of both emission caps and mandatory carbon pricing. Available here. |
A better carbon-pricing paper
November 14, 2009. Peter agreed to be a coauthor of the current flexible-global-carbon-pricing paper. I think this could be a big help with checking the ideas, presentation and distribution. He is gaining some carbon connections in DC. |
Web site started
November 9, 2009. Settled on the domain name, global-energy.org, bought it from godaddy, started a Google Site (globalenergycenter), and applied the domain name to it. Started adding content. By this time, I'd worked out that [global energy] was a search term that could draw traffic, and the site just might become something quite substantial. |
The beginnig
First thought of starting an "institute" on Sept. 29, 2009 and wrote to Dan, Jurgen and Peter who were basically supportive. The main idea was to have a working-paper series and an affiliation. |
