This guide explains carbon capping so that citizens can understand and shape it. The easy-to-read guide describes three different ways to cap carbon: cap-and-giveaway, cap-and-auction, and cap-and-rebate. It explains how if done right, a carbon cap is the single best tool to fight climate change, but if done wrong, will transfer hundreds of billions of dollars from families to corporate polluters. Mandatory reading for every American.
