What's a Carbon Pollution Tax?
Learn about VT's plan to combat climate change during an interactive VBSR webinar.
Climate change threatens our environment, our quality of life, and our economy. That's why Vermont Businesses for Social Responsibility has joined Energy Independent Vermont, a new coalition of organizations and businesses that believe pollution should have a price tag.
What: Putting a Price on Pollution:
An explanation of Vermont's carbon tax proposal
When: Wednesday, April 1, 2015,
4-5 PM
Energy Independent Vermont aims to make the state the first in the country that places a tax on carbon pollution and uses that new revenue to cut other taxes and invest in efforts to move residents and businesses away from fossil fuels. The bill, H.412, was introduced at the Vermont Statehouse earlier this year and hearings are expected to begin soon.
VBSR invites you to an interactive webinar that lays out all the key details about Vermont's carbon pollution tax proposal and how it will improve the state's economy and make us more energy independent. Attendees will hear from legislative leaders, advocates, and business leaders that support combating climate change.
