Carbon emission trading
vendredi 4 mars 2022 à 23:33One of the flaws of "carbon emission trading" is that speculators enter the trading market. That is causing volatility now in the EU's emission trading market -- the price has fallen, so that it is now cheaper to pollute.
A carefully-designed carbon tax would avoid this problem. It has no room for speculation. Furthermore, it is possible to make a special increase the tax if emissions are not declining fast enough.
