• Opis:
   Norway was the first country in the world to fix a carbon dioxide target.  Norway was also one of the first countries to implement taxes to increase incentives  to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The aim of the paper is to analyse the role of  environmental taxes in Norwegian climate policy. The author also examines the  differences between the climate change policy measures in Norway and in the European  Union countries, especially Poland.The first part of the paper contains an  analysis of data on greenhouse gas emissions in Norway in the years 1990-2011. In  the further sections of the paper the discussion is focused on the characteristics of  Norwegian tax system and design of taxes used in Norway as instruments for addressing  climate change. Particular attention is paid to the carbon tax, in force  since 1991. The tax is responsible for large CO2 emission reductions. The paper is  largely based on review of various reports, literature and websites on climate  change policy, energy policy and transport policy in Norway.
