- smadge 7y agoAn actual carbon tax is necessary, though. The game theory/economics of a voluntary “tax” don’t work out.
- tcbawo 7y agoSure, I don't think it's an either-or proposition. However, I think there is a sizable population of people that aren't interested in waiting around until a government policy would be enacted. The purpose would be to inform/educate people on their carbon footprint, to build a community around reducing their carbon footprint, and give a large group of people an opportunity to contribute in a small way that would hopefully have large aggregate results.
