As our recent research has shown, the U.S. economy is, on average, more carbon efficient than our major trading partners. A carbon fee and border carbon adjustment is the only policy lever that can reward U.S. manufacturers for their cleaner operations compared to international competitors while driving significant emission reductions.
All the best,
The Climate Leadership Council team
