It may be necessary, depending on the amount of external contamination (positive or negative effects on those parties who do not believe in an economic transaction), they are a result of carbon and its effect on society.

Today, without a carbon tax, the real cost to society (private costs plus the social cost) does not entirely by humans, pollution or people who do buy goods and services paid for that pollution results. In theory, a carbon tax that the government might carbon tax, so that the true social costs include the costs for the production of carbon pollution. This can be difficult, because the conclusion of the exact social cost is not an exact science, because many things that have happened are not a reliable market price. So, with a carbon dioxide tax, if too low, then it is still too much pollution, so that the high cost to society will not be offset by the benefits of reducing pollution.

An alternative is to cap and trade ", which really is not such a big difference. The challengeto find the right amount of pollution allowed. And if the permits are auctioned and is essentially a carbon tax if permits are given below, can provide a boon for some companies, if they are able to sell permits that do not need.

Another alternative is offered by economic theory, the Coase Theorem. It basically says that if it is property and trade easier then an efficient outcome can be achieved through negotiations to assign. For example, if the people themselves ownership of air willingness to pay with all polluter enough to where they are in order to negotiate with the level of pollution in the air. Or if they want people with the lowest emissions are the people who pollute the money to invest to pay less-incrimination. It is an elegant theory, but has problems of real world applications, especially when a large number of people involved.
