<font face="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">A carbon tax would be the nickname but it would be indexed against GWP – global warming potential, and different gases have assigned GWP multipliers that the tax would be calculated against. This is of course assuming we’re on a different planet for the talk of a carbon tax to begin with.</span></font><br></div><br></div></div></div></body></html>
