COP24 - the 24th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) will meet in Katowice, Poland in early December, 2018.  They plan to implement the Paris Agreement "rule book" and there's a push for a global carbon tax law.  We take a look at what Canadians are already paying in carbon tax equivalents on federal and provincial fuel taxes - and what the rest of the world pays in carbon taxes.  What would a carbon tax law mean for Canada and other democracies. Please read our rebuttal to the UN Climate Panel's recent IPCC SR15 report. https://blog.friendsofscience.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Faulty-Premises-Poor-Public-Policy-on-Climate-Oct-30-2018-FINAL.pdf
