Climate change is the existential threat of our time and one party or one nation alone cannot solve this problem. We need everyone on board. I agree completely with Porter’s claim that an essential tool in our climate action kit should be a conservative, market-based revenue-neutral carbon fee and dividend policy. Good news, there is a bill already introduced in the House that incorporates the tenets of the Baker-Shultz Plan: The Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividends Act (H.R. 2307). ~ Gerry Gross, Bangor
