The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, under President Trump, announced last month that it would roll back limits on greenhouse gas emissions. Experts at Penn, including CERL Affiliated Faculty Member Eric Orts, discussed the change with The Daily Pennsylvanian, noting that it could have irreversibly dire consequences, and hurt both individuals affected by climate change and the United States’ standing on the world scale.
Eric W. Orts is the Guardsmark Professor at the Wharton School, where he teaches in both Legal Studies & Business Ethics and in Management. He is also a member of CERL’s Affiliated Faculty. Read his bio here.
