Abstract

To meet the challenge of global climate change and stave off catastrophic warming, the United States will have to reduce and eventually eliminate emissions of greenhouse gasses. The United States is the world's top consumer of fossil fuels per capita, and has one of the largest populations of any country, but lags behind other states in doing its share to prevent the climate crisis. This is only possible through a massive rewriring of several sectors of the economy. The scope of this challenge has not been lost on the science and environmental policy spheres, where pathways to eliminating emissions have become a much discussed topic. This area of study is often termed “deep decarbonization:” a reduction in emissions across sectors of the economy, with an emphasis on their interconnection.
