What's the meme here?
Missing from that meme is the carbon market that they want to create. No mention of money (read: power), seriously? I thought we were all adults here.
Huh? Carbon tax is carbon market. Again, there ain't no shanghai la. If there is a tax then there is going to be a credit. Built in exploits are a given. Anyway, I have yet to see definitive proof that carbon is the actual problem.Montegriffo wrote: ↑Fri Jan 10, 2020 10:25 pmWho is ''they''?
A carbon tax is probably the most effective way of reducing CO2 output.
Carbon markets are just a greenwash. Rich countries buying the allowance of poor countries so that emissions stay the same.
A tax is just that. A tax. A charge on carbon emissions. There is no need to create a market to offset it.Haumana wrote: ↑Fri Jan 10, 2020 10:31 pmHuh? Carbon tax is carbon market.

Meme was shit, any way it is dissected.
Name one tax that doesn't have an offset credit, or an exception, attached to it in American tax law.Montegriffo wrote: ↑Fri Jan 10, 2020 10:39 pmA tax is just that. A tax.

The consumer ends up paying and companies are incentivized to cut emissions so they can undercut their competitors.
I don't even care where the money raised goes so long as it doesn't result in more emissions. The point is to incentivize industry and consumers to reduce their footprints.
