CO2 Pricing in Regensburg: How Economic Policy Affects Climate Protection

How a price for CO2 can promote climate protection

The event at the University of Regensburg addresses one of the central questions of sustainable economic policy: Can the pricing of CO2 make an effective contribution to solving the climate problem? The lecture is part of a scientific lecture series on sustainability and is aimed at all interested parties – no prior subject knowledge is required.

Scientific Perspectives on Climate Protection and Economics

The focus is on the economic consideration of climate policy instruments. A CO2 price targets the costs of climate-damaging emissions and connects environmental policy with economic incentives. The lecture provides a clear context for these relationships and opens up the view of the role of companies, households, and political institutions.

Lecture with Room for Discussion

After the expert lecture by Prof. Dr. Lutz Arnold, there will be ample time for questions and discussions. This creates an event experience that goes beyond mere knowledge transfer: The audience's mood is enlivened by exchanges on climate protection, sustainability, and the practical significance of economic policy decisions.

Sustainability as a Topic of the Lecture Series

The event is embedded in a lecture series at the University of Regensburg that highlights different facets of sustainable business practices. Event planning combines scientific expertise with an open target audience approach, making current issues from economics, environmental economics, and sustainability accessible to a wide audience.

Conclusion

Those who wish to understand the opportunities and challenges behind the pricing of CO2 will experience an informative lecture with scientific depth and subsequent discussion in Regensburg. The free event offers a good opportunity to learn about climate policy from an economic perspective and to contribute one’s own questions.
