Carbon Fee and Dividend ICC Rotary
- 1. 1 The Best Solution to Global Warming by Tim Dec 1
- 2. 2 Presentation Outline 2 • The science around climate change • Short video • Citizens’ Climate Lobby and our approach to address climate change • Policy analysis • Questions
- 3. 3 CO2 in our atmosphere
- 4. 4 We’re Adding To Our Greenhouse 4
- 5. 5 Efforts So Far Haven’t Stopped CO2 Increase 5 We’re now rapidly adding CO2 to the relatively stable amount we’ve had for hundreds of thousands of years.
- 6. 6 What about the Sun? 6
- 8. 88 Pass national “Carbon Fee and Dividend” legislation Citizens’ Climate Lobby’s Solution • Place a steadily rising fee on the CO2 content of fossil fuels • Return all net revenue from the carbon fee back to households • Enact border tariff adjustments to ensure fairness and competition
- 9. 99 Citizens’ Climate Lobby’s Approach • Writing letters to the editor, op-eds, and meeting with editorial boards • Facilitating a wide range of outreach events to educate others on our policy • Building relationships with our federally elected representatives on a foundation of respect, appreciation and gratitude for their service We keep a singular focus on our policy and create political will for action by —
- 10. 10 • Apply a fee to fossil fuels, start at $15 • Base the fee on the CO2 the fuel will release when burned • Collect the fee as far upstream in the economy as practical • Steadily increase the fee each year by $10 How it works Carbon Fee and Dividend 10
- 11. 11 • 100% of the revenue is returned to households • Monthly dividends are in equal shares • Approximately 2/3 of households will break even or come out ahead How it works Carbon Fee and Dividend 11
- 12. 12 • Regional Economic Models Inc (REMI) • Model CO2 Emissions, GDP, Employment, and Health Effects • $10/ton of CO2 increasing at $10/year for 20 years Commission a independent study How will it effect the U.S. economy? 12
- 13. 1313 Regional Economic Models Inc.
- 14. 1414 • CO2 emissions decline 33% after 10 years, and 52% after 20 years • 13,000 premature deaths avoided annually after 10 years • National employment increases by 2.1 million jobs after 10 years, and 2.8 million after 20 years - about 1% • $70-$85 billion annual increase in GDP, cumulative increase in national GDP of $1.3 trillion after 20 years - about 0.4% Economic Analysis by REMI No economic case against Carbon Fee

- The Best Solution to Global Warming >>> Thank you for the opportunity to speak about climate change and CCL’s policy to address it. >>> I’m joined today by David Cain…. For Apple OSX Keynote - developed with OSX version 6.1 and due to in slide transitions it will not play well in the iCloud version but works great on iPad/iPhone. This presentation is originally based on Dave Massen’s Revision Date Notes First 3/25/14 Original Focused on Idaho with some slides (new groups, fire in the west). Second 6/27/14 Added Graph on Obama EPA plan CO2 results from CTC and slide on cap and trade. Third 5/17/15 Many updates for OA, REMI charts, humor. Four 10/20/15 Added some slides back in. added

- CO2 concentrations over the past 800,000 years. Carbon dioxide is of special concern because of its large concentration AND its long duration in the atmosphere – 100 years and more – compared to other greenhouse gases. Source: Scripps Institute of Oceanography; U.S. Department of Energy
- Keeling Curve : curving up? Charles David Keeling By measuring the ratio of two isotopes of carbon, Keeling attributed the diurnal change to respiration from local plants. The Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California, San Diego, began measuring the concentration of CO2 in the global atmosphere at the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii in 1958. Concentrations are reaching 400 parts per million (ppm) for the first time in human history. We can see from the graph that local and regional attempts around the world to reduce emissions in recent years still have not made a dent in the upward trend, and more aggressive steps are needed.

- reference: http://www.skepticalscience.com/solar-activity-sunspots-global-warming-basic.htm Over the last 35 years the sun has shown a slight cooling trend. However global temperatures have been increasing. Since the sun and climate are going in opposite directions scientists conclude the sun cannot be the cause of recent global warming.

If we look at natural causes alone, we should be cooling.

- Here’s how it works. A fee, or tax, is applied to coal, oil, and natural gas at the point where the fuel is first enters into the economy. The fee is based on the amount of CO2 the fuel will release when burned, and it is increased slowly but steadily each year. Source: Citizens Climate Lobby

(13,000 per year after 5 years) Conservatively assumes no additional negatives external costs with the no action case. Dispels the false narrative that acting on climate change will ruin the economy.
