Putting a price on carbon is the best solution for climate change (Back Ground)Climate change‚ a consequence of unchecked pollution‚ has become a controversial issue in most nations in over the world. Among countless others‚ carbon emission is one of main causes of this problem. The effects of climate change are extremely dangerous not only on the environment but also for economy (Australian Conservation Foundation‚ 2013). Consequently‚ these effects have strongly influenced human life. Finding

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Carbon Credits are gaining momentum not only around the world but also in India. The Concept of Carbon Credits evolved as a step to mitigate the rising Global Warming on earth. The emission of greenhouse gases by industries and anthropogenic activities has caused irreparable damage to the atmosphere leading to rising global temperature‚ affecting human life and causing Global Warming. The Concept of Carbon Credits was therefore evolved by way of an agreement by different countries

Climate Change (IPCC) estimated that aviation may contribute around 3.5% of the total contribution of human activities to global warming. An International Air Transport Association (IATA) report says aviation is responsible for only 2% of global CO2 emissions and by 2050 will represent 3%. However‚ aviation has been unfairly labelled as a big polluter and there is not much of an understanding of this issue. Yet‚ globally‚ aviation companies‚ have already started addressing this issue and have made significant

Nearly every news day we hear about the carbon tax. Many support it and many oppose it. Julia Gillard says it will cut emission whilst others just think it will drive up prices. The analysis undertaken by simulating the impact of a carbon tax of $23 a tonne reveals some interesting

is already responsible for 12% of the UK’s overall climate change impact (taking into account the higher impact of carbon emissions at altitude). If recent rates of growth continue‚ aviation emissions could account for more than 30% of the UK’s emissions by 2050. Our work involves ensuring that these emissions are included in the UK Climate Change Act‚ the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) and other international frameworks. We do not support airport expansion as we think we can use existing capacity

significant impact on greenhouse gas emissions. It has been claimed that an Australian carbon tax will have no significant impact on the level of greenhouse gases in the earth’s atmosphere. This claim has been made on two bases. Firstly that it is unlikely to succeed in significantly reducing Australian greenhouse gas emissions and secondly‚ that even if these emissions were to stop completely this would have no useful effect on world greenhouse gas emission rates. Critics of a carbon tax for Australia
