Another neighboring state (Idaho) has recently joined a regional emissions trading consortium (group that agreed to do trades where major polluters can buy other companies pollution rights to supplement their own production lines). A third nearby state (Cal.) has just enacted a revenue-neutral carbon tax. Which actions will you take in your first year as Governor of (Washington ) helping climate change and why?
