MIT study suggests carbon tax could help reduce US deficit, lower other taxes, reduce emissions

Green Car Congress

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. This contributes to the win-win-win result we expected for the nation’s economy and environment. Conversely, cutting income taxes would benefit wealthy households because they pay more in taxes.
