During Wednesday’s CNN Climate Town Hall, 2020 presidential candidate former Vice President Joe Biden stated that he would support a carbon tax.

Moderator Anderson Cooper asked, “Would you support a carbon tax, some other candidates say they would?”

Biden answered, “I would. But here’s what we have to do.
