Can markets appropriately price ecological limits?
About this Event

Finance says it can price anything, but can it price the planet? The real social cost of carbon may be hundreds of dollars per ton, yet most companies pay next to nothing. Join us for a debate between two Haas Professors about whether markets can internalize ecological limits or whether we need something entirely different. Come for the entertainment, stay for the fiduciary duty.


This event is open to UC Berkeley students and community members.
