Instructor Feedback

"This is a well-structured and thoughtful essay that demonstrates a solid understanding of climate policy mechanisms. Your use of the British Columbia carbon tax as a case study is particularly effective, and your writing is clear and academically appropriate. To reach the next level, I'd encourage you to engage more deeply with the distributional implications of carbon pricing and to consider how political economy constraints shape policy design choices. Your conclusion is strong — the 'portfolio approach' framing is exactly the kind of synthesis I was looking for."
