 A rising star in environmental economics, Dr. Wagner served on the board of the Environmental Defense Fund shortly after finishing his PhD here at Harvard. He now serves as the co-Director of Harvard's Solar Geoengineering Research Program and he recently co-authored the successful book Climate Shock: The Economic Consequences of a Hotter Planet. He'll be speaking to us about the Climate Leadership Council's Carbon Dividends Plan, which you can read more about [here](https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.clcouncil.org_our-2Dplan_&d=DwMFaQ&c=WO-RGvefibhHBZq3fL85hQ&r=zihvsgJY0lA59NoAV4-FQdJTKxP1oJwDLPmXSMsIxlI&m=U0-bCAO2RkLgG7xWpXm_uh38iZqEHRusf6V7FCMVYHA&s=KgdXTpeTSxr7yWKvLAmWPEcMVkPFUauNP55oethuYMw&e=)!

 The plan basically entails putting a voluntary price on carbon emissions in the private sector and then giving the funds raised back to average people.

 For those of you who haven't attended a "SustainabiliTEA" before, the concept is simple. We bring in prominent environmental leaders to chat with us in an informal setting. For instance, this week, we'll have Q&A about carbon dividends over tea and cookies with Dr. Wagner.
