You skipped right over the point

BuckGalaxy — 12/13/2023 8:55:49 PM (archived)

Carbon taxes are not a solution because they are too easily repealed. Do you now agree it is not viable?

There's nothing "deep down" in me about accepting who is to blame for AGW. But it's not just the rightwing constituency, it's everyone. It would be nice to throw all the blame on rightwing asswipes, but in reality we are all to blame. Everyone who uses electricity for anything is to blame. Sure rightwingers have a bigger share due to their knuckle dragging denialism, but not all of it. We all have a carbon footprint.

You might want to actually read the entire long article I linked to in the thread titled: Renewables’ growing price advantage over fossil fuels paves way for industry dominance.
