What People are Saying about Carbon Pricing
-
“West Africa has a harmattan season from November to February – very dry and hot at day and cold at night. Recently, there was a torrential downpour in December. Never happened before. It is like three feet of snow in Texas in July. The people cried out: “What in the world is going on? Thunderstorm in harmattan?” The answer? Global Climate Change and the devastating consequence for agriculture. Carbon pricing will help.”
–Rev. Abraham Waya, United Methodist Church, Brockton, MA
-
“A statewide carbon fee is the most ambitious step state government can take to combat climate change. Massachusetts should lead the way.”
— Senator Mike Barrett

–Jim Yong Kim, World Bank Group President
-
“Climate disruption has been described as ‘uniquely irreversible’, as tipping points are not very forgiving. Climate change is not business-as-usual and requires ‘business as unusual’ for solutions. Fee and rebate carbon pricing is a game-changer.”
— Launa Zimmaro, League of Women Voters, Director
-
“The producers and distributors of fossil fuels should be responsible for the cost their products have in environmental damage. Carbon pricing makes producers bear responsibility for the damage their product causes to people today and to future generations.”
–Rev. Reebee Kavich Girash, Eliot Church of Newton
-
“I’ve long believed that the most elegant way to drive innovation and to reduce carbon emissions is to put a price on it.”
–Former President Barack Obama
-
“Massachusetts collectively spends more than $20 billion a year on fossil fuel imports. That money leaves the state and doesn’t come back. A carbon fee and rebate policy can help us keep more of that money here and increase jobs.” — Roger Freeman, Founder and CEO, Solventerra LLC
