Tax rates were below the low-end estimate of climate costs (EUR 30/tCO 2 ) for 97% of emissions. The report found that the share of emissions taxed above climate costs increased from 46% in 2012 to 50% in 2015, and rates exceed €50 per tCO 2 for 47% of emissions in 2015, compared to 37% in 2012. of emissions.

Some will suffer greatly from climate change, while others may even benefit. If we were able to measure this social cost accurately, standard Pigouvian logic tells us that the optimal tax should be such that the price of carbon is equal to this social cost. The price of carbon should then be set at this price, everywhere.
