  • Stram, Bruce Nels

Abstract

This paper proposes a new Green House Gas policy building upon general consensus in scientific, political and economic communities including:1.Concern too little progress is being made toward an integrated global approach to controlling CO2 emissions.2.Recommendation of a carbon tax.3.Need for increased R&D for alternative energy sources.4.Substantially increased research and development expenditures are relatively inexpensive.
