Claim: A carbon tax will reduce pollution In general, a tax on an action induces people to do less of the action. A “carbon tax” would raise the price of consuming goods like fossil fuels that cause carbon dioxide emissions, thus giving incentive to consume…

A carbon tax would make those who cause the emissions from their consumption pay something for it directly and, in the process, lead to fewer emissions. For an electorate that hates new taxes, one could offset the carbon tax increase by lowering some other existing tax such as payroll taxes.
