Description
Faced with the danger of global warming, many countries engaged in the energy transition have instituted a carbon tax or are preparing to do so. The best known example is Sweden, where a carbon tax was introduced as early as 1991. After gradual increases, the tax reached a high level in 2018 (125 Euros/tonne of carbon), which is supported by the whole political field, social partners and the population
