Why would my electric and/or natural gas bill increase if Congress and the Administration were to pass a CO2 tax?

In an attempt to promote a clean environment and promote renewable and alternative sources of energy which are less reliable, some policymakers in Washington believe that coal and natural gas should be more costly to use as an energy source.
