CLIMATE CHANGE

Joe Bakewell.


CLIMATE CHANGE.


As far as I’m concerned, the debate is long since over. The problem is real and getting worse; the consequences painful for mankind, including all Americans. Increases in carbon and greenhouse gasses are the main cause. What to do?

There are two, fundamentally different, paths to solving the problem. A/ Incentivize businesses i.e. with a carbon tax set to increase every year. B/ Trust our politicians to manage the problem through regulation, fines etc.
 
I favor A/ as it piggybacks on the natural incentives for business managers. B/ alters the incentives for managers, diverting their attention from solving the problem to buying influence with politicians.

Sorry folks, there’s no escape; that %$@@#$ corruption system (special interest money buying politicians—yours too) stands between us and effective government. But, if you just keep voting for the candidates of your party, things will improve. No?
