23] – The Baltimore Museum of Industry will mark the ten year anniversary of the end of steelmaking at Sparrows Point on Sun., June 5 from noon to 2:30 PM ET. Register at https://www.thebmi.org/programs-events/10-years-since-steelmaking-stopped-at-sparrows-point/programming. During the 1950s, Sparrows Point was the largest steel-producing plant in the world, having built ships used in the World Wars, and parts of the Empire State Building, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. At its height, the mill employed roughly 31,000 steelworkers and associated personnel. The last day of operation at the site was June 4, 2012.
The BMI’s newest exhibition, Fire & Shadow: The Rise and Fall of Bethlehem Steel, explores the company’s complicated history and tragic legacy. The exhibition features both historic and contemporary photographs, artifacts ranging from workplace IDs to flame-resistant clothing worn in the mill’s furnaces, and first-person narratives of workers themselves. The exhibition provides a look at the history of the steel giant and the devastation left in the wake of its loss. Outside the museum, there will be a dedication ceremony of the Bethlehem Steel Legacy Garden at 2 PM.

33] –The Henry George School of Social Science [info@hgsss.org] on Tues., June 7 at 2 PM is holding a seminar The Joys of a Carbon Wealth Tax: Greening the Economy & Tackling Inequality. Register at https://www.hgsss.org/the-joys-of-a-carbon-wealth-tax-greening-the-economy-tackling-inequality/. Is there a policy tool to take on both climate change and unearned income? Join in to learn about the prospects of a carbon wealth tax. To address a worsening climate crisis, economists have often touted the tremendous potentials of carbon pricing. However, evidence suggests that such a policy has so far produced limited effects. This panel of distinguished economists will propose a new concept that targets dirty assets; a brown wealth tax to be levied on carbon-intensive capital instead of products. It is argued that such a shift would help speed up the transition to a green economy with the added benefit of addressing wealth inequality.
