Abstract (Italian)

Le misure in discussione per il raggiungimento degli obiettivi di Kyoto e la carbon tax introdotta dalla legge finanziaria 1999 rendono utili alcune riflessioni. L'obiettivo di Kyoto comporta uno sforzo straordinario che, in ragione dell'ammontare di risorse necessario, impone estrema cautela nel definire nuove politiche energetiche. La carbon tax va semplicemente a consolidare il primato dell'Italia per la sua alta fiscalita' sull'energia
