  Putting a price on carbon is the first step. The second step is not treat it like a tax but to give it straight back to the people who are frugal in their use of Energy as Rewards that MUST be spent on renewable energy plants and on ways of saving energy. This will change behaviour and will involve all citizens and give them a vote (via their Rewards) on how to stop carbon emissions. Visit http://rewards.edentiti.com for some ideas and contact me for more details on a simple technique to make it happen both within a country and across countries. It is a system to solve the "Tragedy of the Commons" through a system of "you scratch my back and I will scratch yours" by ensuring that Rewards you receive for reducing your foot print but paid by me is spent on ways to reduce emissions for us all.
