Robert Reich’s short video on pollution
Every ton of carbon that’s released into the atmosphere costs our nation between $40 and $100, and we release millions tons of it every year.

Raising the estate tax on the wealthiest Americans is one way to fight back against growing inequality. Watch Robert Reich’s video “Raise the Estate Tax” , part of the 10 video series.
