ATA’s seminar will take a look at carbon rationing.

David Spratt advocates personal carbon allowances as the most fair and equitable means of rapidly reducing carbon emissions. David will look at some of the science relating to global warming and why greenhouse emissions would be best controlled by personal carbon allowances or rationing, as outlined in Climate Code Red, the book he has recently co-authored.

David has extensive advocacy experience in the peace movement, and in developing community-campaign communication and marketing strategies. In 2006 he co-founded Carbon Equity and his work now focuses on climate-policy analysis. With Philip Sutton, he is the co-author of “Climate Code Red” published in July 2008.
