The fee is charged to all extractors of oil, gas and coal starting at a modest $15/ton increasing $10/ton/yr. Agriculture and the military are exempt from the fee. The fee would be a strong impetus for R&D for renewable energy. The dividend is the money collected from the fee and totally redirected to all citizens. A family of 4 would receive initially $2,000/yr rising to $3,800 by year 10 to help offset increased fossil fuel costs and incentivize use of renewal energy. This solution has b
