Removing fossil fuel subsidies is important for mitigation and making carbon pricing polices effective. We find that removing on fuels may not generate more public resistance (or support) than introducing a tax, by specifying alternatives revenue recycling, the level of acceptability increase.

متن کاملCan “stranded” fossil fuel reserves drive CCS deployment?
Recent studies have evaluated the climate change implications of burning all of the world’s proven reserves of carbon. To stay below the ambitious target of two degrees Celsius of warming above average pre-industrial temperatures, the International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates that we would need to emit no more than 884 GtCO2 globally between 2012 and 2050, equivalent to burning approximately ...
متن کاملOcean sequestration of crop residue carbon: recycling fossil fuel carbon back to deep sediments.
For significant impact any method to remove CO2 from the atmosphere must process large amounts of carbon efficiently, be repeatable, sequester carbon for thousands of years, be practical, economical and be implemented soon. The only method that meets these criteria is removal of crop residues and burial in the deep ocean. We show here that this method is 92% efficient in sequestration of crop r...
متن کاملToward an optimal U.S. ethanol fuel subsidy
