Biden is appointing “totally different kinds of people” to solve climate change
In early December, Jane Flegal was asked for her “optimal policy mix” to address climate change.
Flegal was a program officer with the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation at the time, a position from which she was able to steer money to many of America’s preeminent climate researchers, nonprofits and advocacy groups.
On this day, she was sitting for an interview on a podcast hosted by Jason Bordoff, a Columbia University professor who served as a climate adviser to former President Obama.
Bordoff wanted to know if Flegal preferred a traditional policy mix that centered around a carbon price, EPA regulations and government-funded research, or a new approach that favored tailoring investments and standards to specific industries.
