About This Policy
Carbon Fee and Dividend with border adjustment is a free market solution to climate change fitting to the scale of the problem. Under this proposal:
- A steadily rising fee would be imposed on the source of carbon emissions – oil wells, coal mines, natural gas fields, etc. These costs would filter down to goods and services, providing a price signal for pollution and accelerating the transition to a sustainable economy.
- All fees collected would be returned to American households in the form of a periodic dividend check – the majority of citizens benefiting financially as a result.
- A border adjustment would be applied to imports and exports, strengthening American business against polluting countries and encouraging other nations to enact similar carbon pricing.
