  • 820 First St NE #675 Washington, DC 20002 Climate Policy and Litigation
    820 First St NE #675 Washington, DC 20002 Climate Policy and Litigation Program Report FY 2018-2019 December 2019 The Niskanen Center’s Climate Policy and Litigation Program Report 2018 through 2019 Over the reporting period, Niskanen’s climate team has achieved significant progress toward each of our targeted intermediate outcomes and laid the groundwork to reach our ultimate objectives. We describe those accomplishments and what we have learned in the following report, and discuss where our strategic outlook has been reinforced and where it has been altered. Our focus remains on turning the Niskanen Center’s climate program into one of the most influential, informative, and innovative in Washington, D.C. When the Niskanen Center opened its doors five years ago, and even when the reporting period for our program initiated two years ago, leading Republicans embraced climate skepticism and were occupied with deconstructing the Obama Administration’s climate agenda. There had not been a bipartisan bill supporting carbon pricing since the failure of Waxman-Markey in 2009. Now, we see Republicans acknowledging the reality of human-caused climate change and seeking solutions of varying ambition. At the highest levels, several Republican members of Congress have introduced carbon tax legislation with prices over $30 per ton of CO2 emissions, which—were they law—would be the most ambitious national climate policy globally. The developments portend further progress in the coming years, as bipartisan groups of legislators can embrace both sectoral and comprehensive reforms. The Niskanen Center has been at the heart of these developments. Over the reporting period, Niskanen Center staff have provided policy input and advice for carbon pricing bills that have achieved bipartisan support, been asked for information on climate change and the available responses from formal and informal groups of legislators, and maintained a high volume of public appearances and commentary promoting market-based reforms to achieve a low-carbon economy.

    WMC INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR ANALYSIS OF GENDER & OSCAR NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com @womensmediacntr WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonproft organization endeav- oring to raise the visibility, viability, and decision-making power of women and girls in media and thereby ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.
