We're in Baton Rouge talking about energy security and the US competitive edge in low-carbon manufacturing today. Excited to join @brianhaldane this morning!
Indeed, very productive and constructive discussions on the past and future of transatlantic climate and trade cooperation with participants from @trade_eu, @USTradeRep, Democrat and Republican Senate staff, and civil society. More to come. Thanks to all involved! @DWteVelde
I hope you'll join us for a conversation about the next frontier of climate policy making and the hotest topic in international trade. We won't adequately address climate change till we address the carbon loophole.
No lunch plans Monday? Would love if you logged on to watch a conversation about closing the carbon loophole and the innovative solutions policymakers are developing to address this pressing climate challenge!
I'm so excited to talk about the climate loophole and the novel approaches policymakers are developing to address this pressing climate challenge. I hope you'll tune in!
I was delighted to speak with former WTO Appellate Body members James Bacchus of @UCF and @J_A_Hillman of @Georgetown Law about the road ahead for climate and trade policies at our latest @TheCLCouncil event: The Climate-Trade Nexus & the WTO: Friend or Foe?
And I implore you to read Matt Porterfield's groundbreaking analysis that considers viable defenses for all of the climate and trade policies gaining steam in world capitals today. clcouncil.org/report/carbon-…
Big thanks as well to @martyjdurbin, @philipkbell and Michael Parr of @ultralowcarbon for joining a panel discussion on the industry opportunities presented by leveraging carbon efficiency data.
So stinking proud of our team @TheCLCouncil!!
"But in today’s hyperpartisan environment, CLC is a striking example of an advocacy group willing to stay neutral and navigate an increasingly messy political morass toward achieving a singular goal."
Meet @TheCLCouncil, a group working with FOUR DIFFERENT SENATORS on FOUR COMPLETELY DIFFERENT carbon tariff bills to lay the groundwork for an eventual compromise: eenews.net/articles/climate-…
Join me as I hit the ground running after maternity leave! I'll be speaking about the carbon advantage, climate and trade policies in the works, and opportunities for international alignment and cooperation around more robust, lower-carbon trade.
On Friday, May 5 @ 10am ET, join @crorke for a @WITA_DC webinar on "Finding Synergies with Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanisms for a sustainable future." Panelists will discuss the multiple workstreams, priorities, and synergies surrounding BCAs. Register: bit.ly/44h9LiI
Check out my latest in @TheHillOpinion on the EU CBAM and the opportunities it unlocks for the U.S. to reduce global emissions, elevate clean U.S. businesses, and bring us closer to our allies.

The carbon loophole represents a major shortcoming in climate accounting and is the single clearest environmental case for including trade in climate policy discussions.
