Why would we tax imports from China, when they make 90% of our solar modules?

Why would we tax imports from China, when they make 90% of our solar modules?
- Isinlor 5y agoThat's a hypothetical. If: a) We will keep on meeting our emission targets b) China will keep on missing their emission targets then it does not make sense to import anything from China. My guess is that CCP is quite serious about climate change and will attempt to fulfill it's obligations. They are already slipping by targeting carbon neutrality in 2060 vs. 2050. But we are not doing enough either.
- ppf 5y agoHow is it a hypothetical? You've already said that China has slipped on its carbon neutrality goals, all while we continue to import ever more manufactured goods from that country. Now would be the time to start taxing those, which as I pointed out, we would never do.
