Would a carbon tax reduce the amount of carbon dioxide entering the atmosphere?

Yes. A carbon tax is paid by polluters, such as owners of fossil fuel power stations. The more carbon they emit, the more tax they pay. They don't like paying tax, so they will make efforts to reduce their emissions. The tax raised can be used to encourage renewable energy projects which will reduce the demand for fossil fueled energy, putting more pressure on the polluters to do better.
