IGEL at Wharton

In mid-April I made a presentation about Asian carbon markets at the Wharton School‘s First Annual Conference on Business and the Environment.  The meeting was part of the School’s new Initiative for Global Environmental Leadership (IGEL).  You might recall a posting from last year mentioning a newly-formed International Environmental Management Institute at Penn.  Well, the painstaking efforts of Professor Eric Orts, Stan Laskowski and others to secure corporate sponsorship for the program were successful, and that institute has now morphed into IGEL at the Wharton School.  I was extremely pleased to be invited to participate in the new program as a Senior Faculty Fellow, and I’m looking forward to continued collaboration with Eric, Stan and others at IGEL over the coming years.
