We will have roughly 30-45 minutes for the meeting, but I'm Hayley Ford in case that has changed. We were thinking this meeting could be purely informative in nature, and not necessarily in the context of a specific EPA exercise. That is correct- the Administrator is interested in emissions baselines and economic analyses of clime change (and the extent to which humans contribute). We would like to focus on 1) your specific findings and research in these areas and 2) what other existing research narratives/ schools are currently being circulated and your take on them. Samantha, is that your take as well? If you have a presentation or materials already prepared, we can certainly get them to him ahead of time. However, no need to recreate the wheel if it's easier for you to send along the key reports in advance. Looking forward to seeing you.

A few questions: - How long will we have for the discussion? - 1 expect generally that the objective is to discuss the opportunity to examine emissions baselines and economic analyses of climate change in the context of a red-team/blue-team exercise. Is that right? - Would it be helpful for me to send anything for the Administrator to read in advance, or to bring a formal (e.g., PowerPoint) presentation, or should I just Sierra Club v.

(At a minimum, I would bring copies of some of the key reports and studies that we might discuss, as well as some of the figures from my own forthcoming report.) Thank you, Oren Oren M.
