What Hansen is proposing is that China create its own internal carbon pricing system with a carbon fee to be charged to the fossil-fuel companies and redistributed to the people. If China, now the world's largest energy user, can lead the way (since the U.S. has abrogated its responsibility to do this), then the rest of the world may follow.
