Cukai karbon adalah suatu cukai persekitaran yang dikenakan pada kandungan bahan api karbon.[1] Ia sejenis bentuk harga karbon. Atom karbon disampaikan dalam setiap bahan bakar fosil (arang batu, minyak bumi, dan gas semulajadi) dan ditayangkan sebagai karbon dioksida (CO2) ketika mereka dibakar. Sebaliknya, pembakaran bukan-sumber tenaga-angin, sinar matahari, hidroelektrik, dan nuklear-tidak menukarkan hidrokarbon ke karbon dioksida. Cukai karbon dapat dilaksanakan dengan mengenakan cukai pembakaran bahan bakar fosil-arang batu, minyak bumi produk seperti gasolin dan bahan bakar penerbangan, dan gas semulajadi-berkadaran kandungan karbon mereka.
Akademi sains Negara[2] dan Laporan Penilaian Panel Antara Kerajaan tentang Perubahan Iklim[3] have pointed to the potential impacts of human-induced climate change. Carbon taxes are one of the policy measures that can be used in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels.[4] A number of countries have implemented carbon taxes or energy taxes related to carbon content.[5]
Cukai karbon menawarkan kos berkesan berpotensi cara mengurangkan pembebasan gas rumah kaca.[6] Dari perspektif ekonomi, cukai karbon adalah jenis cukai Pigovian.[7] Mereka membantu untuk mengatasi masalah pembebasan gas rumah kaca yang tidak menghadap ke ( sosial) kos penuh daripada tindakan mereka. cukai karbon adalah cukai regresif, dalam erti bahawa mereka tidak hanya sangat mempengaruhi kumpulan berpendapatan rendah. Sifat regresif dari cukai karbon dapat diatasi dengan menggunakan pendapatan cukai untuk menyokong kumpulan berpendapatan rendah.[8]
