- neltnerb 7y agoThis is what I thought several months ago, but my friend convinced me otherwise. Targeted strategies like energy standards for light bulbs or CAFE standards for vehicles have actual data demonstrating that they work and work quickly. To clarify, I'm not saying "no carbon tax" but rather "carbon tax is insufficient because the time scale is too short". This is an opinion piece, but it is the national academy of sciences at least. https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/117/16/8664.full.pdf https://www.pnas.org/content/pnas/117/16/8664.full.pdf
