Abstract: Key MessagesVoters are willing to make sacrifices for climate change, and they endorse costly climate policies. Voters support green investments even when the investments are funded via carbon taxes.A carbon tax plus a Climate Premium is another promising policy. The Climate Premium is an upfront transfer to all households.Both the public and experts are too pessimistic about voters’ support for climate policies.Effective communication of the climate policy details is key.
