Presentation Summary:

Dr. Delton Chen’s presentation will introduce the innovative concept of a “carbon reward,” a novel market policy grounded in the “carrot and stick carbon pricing” theory. Dr. Chen will explain how traditional market mechanisms and economic models fail to account for the systemic risks associated with greenhouse gases, and how the carbon reward can address these shortcomings. Dr. Chen’s presentation will be highly relevant to city councils, state governments, technology firms, and consulting firms interested in smart city initiatives, sustainable urban development, and innovative financial solutions for climate action. Dr. Chen is seeking “smart city” sponsors to help validate the carbon reward market and make a major breakthrough in financial sustainability.
