HiNoah,

Greetings fromyou couldn't make it.

meetinghas been greatand it was great having here. Sorry

The three of us and were able to get together to talk further about your paper.tells methat hehas had some initialdiscussions with you about this. As expected the paper issolid on the science and will be an important contribution to the literature . However is veryconcerned not only about the strong framing in terms of the Paris agreements but also that thepaper is essentially a policy analysis , which he feels is outside of the scope of(and the DOE Office of Science in general). We all agreed that if you dropped the Paris framing ,the paper would fit within the scope ofyour proposed project work.

would welcomea callwith you to discuss this further, if you would find thishelpful. At this

point, however, we are requesting that you do not include an acknowledgement to either grant

Best,
