In response to the global climate crisis, governments around the world are considering implementing a mandatory policy: requiring every citizen to pay an annual "carbon tax" to offset their personal carbon emissions. However, critics argue that such a measure would unfairly burden low-income groups, while supporters insist it is the only effective means of holding individuals accountable for environmental consequences. Do you believe this individual carbon tax system can strike a balance between environmental benefits and social equity? Please state your position and provide specific reasons and examples to support your argument.
