Eco-tax reform (ETR) uses fiscal policy measures to steer economic burdens away from economically beneficial activities (such as employment) towards environmentally harmful activities (such as the generation of pollution). With this approach, decision-making at every level, by the individual in society up to the highest national Government forum, is steered towards minimizing the environmental impacts of growth. While infrastructure expands, it locks economies into specific patterns of resource use (such as energy) for decades into the future.
