This is a true market solution to the missing price signals of using fossil carbon as fuel. Right now we pay little more than the cost of extraction. Nothing is paid for the depletion of these nonrenewable resources from the commons. Nor for the sink of their waste. This bill attempts to phase in a more accurate market price to carbon as fuels to help the market drive us toward more sustainable types and levels of energy consumption. Write your congress person to support H.R. 763.
