The IPPC report released by the United Nations on Monday says that urgent action is necessary to avert catastrophic climate change.

William Nordhaus, co winner of the 2018 Nobel prize in Economics, has shown that carbon taxes are effective in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

I am opposed to the Cap And Trade Cancellation Act. We should not be cancelling the cap and trade program until we are ready to implement an even more rigorous program of carbon taxes,

Carbon taxes would reduce emissions and raise funds for: implementing measures to improve energy efficiency in homes and in buildings; for moving from carbon-fuel-based transportation to electric; and for clean sources of electricity.
