But while the idea to produce a climate-friendly car is admirable, the vehicle Germany used for the project was quite questionable. Karliczek, for his part, noted in a press release that such a project is incredibly important since “green hydrogen” is a valuable building block for climate protection. .

However, such arguments have been difficult to justify quantitatively, the MIT team notes; quantitative estimates of direct volcanic outgassing are much too small to account for the changes in the carbon cycle. An open access paper on their research is published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).

The analysis used the MIT US Regional Energy Policy (USREP) model to evaluate the effect of a carbon tax as part of a Federal budget deal. Conversely, cutting income taxes would benefit wealthy households because they pay more in taxes. The third win—carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) pollution and oil imports would be reduced.
