  7. POLICY FOR CLIMATE STABILZATION • Carbon tax or equivalent (cap & trade) – must be ≥ $100/MT C ($30/MT C02) and rise over time • Recycle revenues of ≥ $150 billion for energy efficiency, renewables, progressive rebates • R&D investment ($3-12 billion) • Infrastructure investment – hi-speed rail, public transit, green buildings • Preferential credit for energy efficiency investments
