He argues against the 2 °C 'guardrail' target for limiting temperature rises.[9] Tol does not advocate another target, but has recommended a carbon tax of $5/tC.[10] He acknowledges that this level of taxation is too low to significantly discourage fossil fuel use but argues it would help to stimulate the development of fuel-saving technology and improve the competitiveness of renewable energy sources
