Implement a UK carbon dividend and tax on fossil fuels with immediate effect.

Closed 246 signatures

What the petition asks

Carbon fee and dividend is levying a progressively rising tax on carbon-based fuels, then returning some or all of the revenue to the public as a regular energy dividend. This incentivizes a shift to low-carbon energy while protecting consumers from any increases in the costs of carbon-based fuels.
