City Approves Carbon Tax In Effort To Reduce Gas Emissions
Boulder, CO - Voters in this liberal college town have approved what environmentalists say may be the nations first "carbon tax" intended to reduce emissions of heat-trapping gases.
The tax is to pay for the "climate action plan," efforts to "increase energy efficiency in homes and buildings, switch to renewable energy and reduce vehicle miles traveled," the city's environmental affairs manager, Jonathan Koehn, said.
