Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions and the University Program in Environmental Policy Seminar Series

University of Michigan Professor John DeCicco will present a speech titled "The Liquid Carbon Challenge: Clarifying the Problem Statement for Transportation Fuels and Climate," at 10 a.m. Jan. 31. The talk will explore how transportation climate policy might look if it were decoupled from policies premised on replacing petroleum. DeCicco will provide analysis of the factors that underpin transportation sector greenhouse gas emissions and a corollary analysis that examines biofuels based on carbon cycle fundamentals, based on his research. This talk is part of the Nicholas Institute for Environmental Policy Solutions and the University Program in Environmental Policy seminar series featuring leading experts discussing a variety of pressing environmentally focused topics.
