Promoters of taxes on carbon dioxide emissions are trying to attract support from conservatives by claiming that such taxes are a free market response to global
warming. Promoters claim that C02 taxes can be revenue neutral, can be a huge new source of additional government revenues, and that the revenues can be
returned as a dividend to consumers. It is also claimed that taxing emissions is a cost-effective way to lower those emissions, will create more jobs than are lost, and
will even provide a boost to the economy.
After opening remarks by Rep. Bill Flores, three experts will debunk these claims and discuss the real economic and political effects of C02 taxes. Jim Lucier will
also discuss a just-published economic analysis of recent carbon tax proposals. There will be time for Q&A with the panelists.
