On October 5th, join Dr. Dallas Burtraw, Senior Fellow at Resources for the Future, for a conversation about the likely environmental and climate impact of the 2016 election. What will come out of Washington DC under a Clinton presidency? Or under Trump? Will Clinton break from Obama's legacy? Are Trump's environmental policy proposals reflective of Republican thinking? How much depends on changes in Congress? And how will the election results effect the Paris Climate agreement?

Burtraw holds a PhD in Economics and an MPP in Public Policy from the University of Michigan and a BS in Community Economic Development from the University of California at Davis. He recently served on the National Academy of Sciences Board on Environmental Studies and Toxicology and on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Advisory Council on Clean Air Compliance Analysis. He also served on California’s Economic and Allocation Advisory Committee advising the governor’s office and the Air Resources Board on implementation of the state’s climate law.
