Abstract

This chapter introduces fundamental concepts on carbon pricing and taxation, dissecting various mechanisms and their global impacts. Commencing with carbon pricing fundamentals, the chapter navigates through diverse mechanisms, including carbon tax, cap and trade, baseline-and-credit systems, emission trading systems, and the burgeoning voluntary carbon market. Through carbon tax case studies from South Africa and the United Kingdom and emission trading systems case studies from the European Union and California, the chapter offers insights into these mechanisms’ practical implementation and efficacy. Central to the chapter is examining the global adoption and impact of carbon pricing. From international agreements to economic and environmental repercussions, the chapter presents the dimensions shaping the efficacy and scalability of carbon pricing mechanisms. Moreover, the chapter mentions the challenges and controversies surrounding carbon pricing, including equity considerations, social impacts, and political and business opposition. Concluding with a reflection on the complexities and potential pathways forward, the chapter highlights the imperative for continued dialogue and innovative approaches to address climate change effectively. Through a comprehensive analysis of global carbon pricing mechanisms, the chapter aims to provide readers with a nuanced understanding of the opportunities and challenges in navigating the transition towards a low-carbon future.
