The pie charts for electricity, jet fuel, etc. are similar, meaning that carbon taxing can be made "income-progressive" via pro rata revenue distribution.
CTC’s proposed national carbon tax, $37 per ton of carbon ramped up each year for at least 10 years, would reduce emissions by almost 4% annually — more than 30% by 2017.
Because CO2 stays “resident” in the atmosphere for at least a century, the U.S. is responsible for more than 3x as much active greenhouse gas as China.
