Abstract

This article discusses climate change and the impacts of fossil fuels. In doing so, two approaches are outlined to deal with fossil fuels in Washington: a gas tax and a cap and trade system. There are pros and cons of both systems and a review of recent legislation in Washington. This author recommends a cap and trade system for Washington State.
