> where do you think the electricity from your outlets comes from Power generation sources that can and should be made cleaner. And those sources can be made cleaner regardless of how much individuals use (and pay for). > People still pay for the car and the gas - just like you do for the electricity that is result of work that pumps shit into the air too. An individual's selection of vehicle directly affects carbon emissions in a way that can't be mitigated in a society-wide fashion. Electrical power generation, on the other hand, can get cleaner without the end user changing anything. So it makes more sense to have regulations about the carbon emissions on a car. A laptop doesn't have carbon emissions directly, it just uses electricity, so at a societal level that seems better managed by improving electricity generation.
