As Forecast: World Economic Forum Panelists Adamantly Demand A Global Carbon Tax Be Implemented Soon

For the final concluding segment at the World Economic Forum summit meeting in Davos, Switzerland, a number of reputable and acclaimed economic panelists discussed the current state of the world economy and where it’s going. One of the key talking points was the implementation of a global carbon tax, and by the sound of it, many of the guests are very anxious to implement these taxes and subsidies very soon.

AUTHOR’S NOTE: To read more about what the panelists discussed besides the carbon taxes, check out my other report dissecting this segment here.

Aired on January 19th, the segment titled “The Global Economic Outlook,” was described by the WEF; “With the global economy at a crossroads, policy-makers must balance the need for action on growth and inflation with structural imperatives on promoting human development and ensuring an orderly energy transition. What trade-offs and dilemmas will governments face as they seek to leverage the right economic tools and ensure sustainable, long-term growth?”
