Robin Canavan was selected as one of three student representatives to The Presidential Carbon Charge Task Force

The Task Force is chaired by Sterling Professor of Economics, William Nordhaus.  Robin was appointed through the the Graduate Student Assembly while the other two student representatives come from the Graduate and Professional Student Senate and Yale College Council.  Students will work together with administrators and faculty members including Geology and Geophysics Professor and Director of the Yale Climate and Energy Institute, Dr. Mark Pagani, on whether it would be feasible and effective for Yale to institute an internal carbon pricing mechanism as part of its sustainability efforts.
