Putting Free Enterprise to Work on Energy and Climate

The Robert Zicklin Center for Corporate Integrity at Baruch College presents a public lecture by former U.S. Congressman Bob Inglis, director of the Energy and Enterprise Initiative (E & EI), who speaks about climate change and how free enterprise can help solve the U.S. energy and climate challenges. Inglis explains that the E & EI proposed solution is through a true cost comparison between competing fuels and a revenue-neutral tax swap that shifts taxes off of income and capital and onto carbon dioxide. The free enterprise system, he argues, would deliver innovation faster and more efficiently than government mandates, incentives or regulations, and drive economic growth.
