G-MonD Note n°2 : “Towards a unified global tax on carbon”
Note n°2 - july 2012
Title: “Towards a unified global tax on carbon”
Authors: Antoine d’Autume, Katheline Schubert, Cees Withagen
Abstract:
Almost everyone agrees that we must tackle global warming. But so far there is no consensus on how to curb the greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change. This second G-MonD Note argues that one of the most efficient ways would be to levy a uniform global tax on carbon, on top of existing national taxes on fossil fuels that are designed to achieve domestic objectives such as reducing local pollution. Details of how this could work are presented by Nicholas Bray, based on conversations with researchers at the Paris School of Economics and the VU University Amsterdam that led the initial study.
