ACCF Climate Change Studies and Reports
The ACCF makes the case that, given the need to maintain strong U.S.
economic growth and energy security, policymakers should develop a flexible
longterm approach to the potential threat of global warming based on technological
innovation, positive tax policies to promote investment in less-carbon
emitting equipment, and bilateral cooperation with developing countries.
The links below lead to ACCF special reports and congressional testimony
on climate policy and ACCF research on climate policy undertaken jointly
with other think tanks.
