“The days where we can get anything we want at the price we want are over in the era of climate change.”
- Dr. Sanjay Patnaik, Director of the Center on Regulation and Markets at The Brookings Institution
Climate change is a large-scale and increasingly relevant topic. From rising waters to erratic weather and large scale fires, the devastating effects of climate change are seen by everyone. However, there is a lesser known, everyday impact for which the average consumer pays the price. From your daily coffee, weekly grocery bill, or monthly energy bill, climate change has a hand in all these rising prices. Join our multi-disciplinary panelists on Wednesday, January 22 from 5:30-7 PM in Hilton 100 and learn how your everyday decisions can help mitigate the impact, especially in the aftermath of the recent devastating LA wildfires.
