dc.description.abstract
Climate change scholars generally urge that CO2 emissions need to be cut
rapidly if we are to avoid dangerous risks of climate change. However, climate
change mitigation policies are widely perceived to have regressive effects —
that is, putting a higher financial burden as a proportion of household income
on poor than on rich households. This is one of several major barriers to the
adoption of effective mitigation policies. They would also have considerable
social justice implications requiring significant welfare state responses. We
assess the claim that climate change policies have regressive effects by
comparing different types of mitigation policies. We will argue that many of
these are indeed likely to have regressive distributional implications but
that there are several policy options to counteract regressive effects.
