The Abject Failure of Emissions Trading and Carbon Taxation

By Stephen Heins

Both, a carbon tax and cap and trade, have yet to provide a single good example of working. In fact, the EU ETS has been an abject failure since its inception in 1997 and its implementation in 2009.

Also, CA's trading scheme is just another hidden tax that gets rolled into CA's general revenues or state subsidies; and, RGGI has just increased the cost of electricity without providing any real market signals, plus, it makes New England less competitive than other regions of the U.S.

As for a carbon tax, there are so many questions. Here are some of them:

1. Who is the controlling political body?
2. Who writes the rules?
3. Who determines the price point?
4. What qualifies for the tax?
5. Who decides the definition of "renewables?
6. Where is the mechanism for scientifically measuring and verifying emissions throughout the entire supply chain?
7. Who collects the money?
8. Where does the money go after it is collected?

Then, there is the political science in the noisy world of over 200 nations without a legitimate ruling body, just think of the corruption of the United Nations or World Health Organization or totalitarian rulers and to a lesser extent democracies or parliaments. Then, there is the problem of Carbon free-ridership.

Finally, the actual implementation of technology of all things energy and its integration into the global environment is unsettled and uncertain, especially as 1/3 of the globe still lives in relative energy poverty.

1 The Abject Failure of Emissions Trading and Carbon Taxation has been a prominent concern in the battle against climate change. Despite their initial promise to curb greenhouse gas emissions, these market-based approaches have shown limited effectiveness in reducing carbon footprints on a global scale. Critics argue that the reliance on emissions trading and carbon taxation schemes has led to the perpetuation of harmful practices and minimal impact on overall emissions reduction. To address this pressing issue and steer towards a more sustainable future, it is imperative for governments and industries to explore alternative strategies. For instance, investing in cutting-edge technology and renewable energy sources may hold the key to substantial progress in combating climate change. For the best industrial machines that promote sustainability, individuals and businesses are encouraged to go to the official site to make informed choices and contribute to a greener world.
