TPPF Policy Primer: Energy and the Environment-Economic Growth in the Face of the Challenges of Clean Air and Global Warming
Despite dramatic improvements in air quality in Texas over the last 30 years, ever-tightening “clean air” regulations continue to impose heavy costs on the Texas economy. On the horizon, potential regulation of CO2 could have a much greater impact on Texas’ economic growth, manufacturing, and energy production, despite the mounting body of evidence challenging the effectiveness of such regulations. This event will examine the environmental successes in Texas, the upcoming regulatory challenges we are facing, and what can be done to avoid imposing heavier regulatory costs on Texas businesses and consumers.
