Glenn Cannon, General Manager, Waverly Light and Power, and Past Chair of the American Public Power Association (In an Email message to Carbon Tax Center. 12 Mar. 2007): "To me, a carbon tax make the most sense in any strategy where we want to achieve meaningful reductions in all sectors of the economy."
Carbon Tax Center - "Carbon taxes address emissions of carbon from every sector, whereas cap-and-trade systems discussed to date have only targeted the electricity industry, which accounts for less than 40% of emissions."
