This is a revision video looking at carbon trading and carbon taxes as policies to cut emissions. Most economists favour carbon taxes but public support for new environmental taxes in many countries is relatively low.
The poorest countries in the world emit around 0.1 tonnes of CO₂ per person in one year.

– France emits 50-times more per person.
– Germany and Russia around 100-times more.
– USA, Canada, and Australia around 160-times more.
