Fortunately, the political will for carbon pricing is growing. The one obstacle is that conservative politicians are scared of using the word "tax" – so the current strategy is to push for a bill that would return all of the money to citizens ("carbon dividends" are an easier sell than "carbon taxes").

Here are the biggest organizations pushing for this — support them if you can:

https://allianceformarketsolutions.org/ (conservative)

https://www.s4cd.org/ (campus-based)
