I want to give a huge shout out to our friend, Meredith Davis, from the Alliance for Market Solutions, for connecting me with today’s awesome guests. Meredith actually has connected me to a nice suite of possible guests for the season and I’m so here for that kind of collective EcoRight spirit.
Shuting Pomerleau is the deputy director of climate policy at the Niskanen Center. Her areas of research include carbon taxation, carbon border adjustments, and policies at the intersection of climate and trade. Prior to joining Niskanen, she previously worked in public policy at the Cato Institute and the American Council on Renewable Energy.
Kyle Pomerleau is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), where he studies federal tax policy. Before joining AEI, he was chief economist and vice president of economic analysis at the Tax Foundation, where he led the macroeconomic and tax modeling team and wrote on various tax policy topics, including corporate taxation, international tax policy, carbon taxation, and tax reform.
They both received Masters of Public Policy from Georgetown University’s McCourt School of Public Policy, where they (our first husband-wife team) met.
They talk about our favorite subject and their area of expertise–the carbon tax.
