Thus, it is rational to assume that the carbon tax policy is likely to be met with a backlash if it gets adopted in Asian economies. Q. As some of the world's largest carbon emitters, the major emerging Asian economies have been under pressure in international climate change forums to adopt carbon pricing. R. Asian energy planners, however, are not likely to be encouraged by the experience of carbon tax legislation in a number of countries in the West which have been at the forefront of "decarbonizing". S. Many voters in the developed countries have become increasingly resentful of expensive climate change policies predicated on model-based projections of impending environmental catastrophe. T.
