Dr. Daniel Fiorino: Clean Energy Transition: Policies and Politics for A Zero-Carbon World
Description
Dr. Daniel Fiorino, a Distinguished Executive in Residence in the Department of Public Administration and Policy, is the Director of the Center for Environmental Policy in the School of Public Affairs at American University. He is the author of the “Clean Energy Transition: Policies and Politics for A Zero-Carbon World.” The world needs to move quickly from dirty to clean energy because of the health risks, inefficient and expensive energy sources like coal and the deterioration of the climate and the planet. To improve the energy system, people must use energy as efficiently as possible, generate electricity through renewable sources, and electrify all the other end-uses, such as cars, trucks and other modes of transportation. The Biden Inflation Reduction Act is a major step toward clean energy. For decades, the United Nations has led the way to convene countries to work together to battle climate change.
