Over 850 companies reported using an internal price on carbon in 2020 — up over 450% from 150 in 2014 — and the number is expected to rise, according to the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), an internationally recognized non-profit with the largest database of corporate emissions. To the best of our knowledge, Yale was the first institution of higher education to implement a comprehensive internal carbon-pricing program.
