Carbon Fee or Tax
Permalink
Knowledge of the problem is one thing. Solutions are another. We need a national carbon price. In fact, the transition to low carbon world is a boon - a huge economic benefit.
A recent study by blue ribbon panel Regional Economic
Modeling Inc. demonstrates that a
small rebated carbon tax (100% rebated to citizens) would actually add millions
of jobs, add over $1 T (!) to the GDP, save 200,000 lives, create a monthly
income (from the rebate) and, MOST IMPORTANT, reduce emissions 50% (three times
faster than EPA regs) - in just 20 years.

This approach won the MIT Climate Change Proposals Contest :
It is called “The Little Engine That Could.”

Carbon Fee and Rebate is a small government (it doesn't keep
a dime), free market, pro-life policy.
Will the GOP in Congress stand by their hallowed principles or by the ff
industry?
Such bills are waiting in Congress. If we don't vote, the deniers' lobbyists win.
