Join IOP Resident Fellow Rep. Carlos Curbelo and his guest  Geisha Williams, CEO and President of Pacific Gas and Electric Company (2017-2019) for a conversation about how environmental policy became so polarized and divisive and how we can find solutions.  How did environmental policy become so polarized and divisive?

After all, it was Richard Nixon who signed the EPA into existence and President Bush (41) who signed the Clean Air Act. What happened last time Democrats tried to go it alone and pass cap and trade legislation? Are the divisions on this issue more partisan or generational? How are things changing and why is industry increasingly supportive of policies that will reduce carbon pollution? We will also discuss recent developments in Florida and how the state may play a critical role in jolting national political dynamics surrounding climate policy
