Reducing the excise tax on fuel shows what happens when politics meets climate change policy – politics wins.
That’s a very good illustration of what’s wrong with so much of the response to climate change – it’s focused far too much on taxing more and trying to force us to do or have less.
That’s not attractive to the wealthy, it is unaffordable for the poor.
The economic and social costs of too much climate change policy are too high with little, if any environmental benefit.
There is a better way – bright ideas based on the research and science. That’s what’s solved so many other problems.
