I think this is probably why we'll eventually have some sort of carbon rationing if we really want to take limiting carbon emissions seriously. There's only so much making things more efficient can accomplish.
- kmonsen 5y agoRight, we have to make energy usage more efficient, and at the same time make it seem less efficient to consumers by adding a tax in between. Like most of Europe does with car fuel. If you want the market to solve the problem you need to give the market the incentives to solve it.
- abyssin 5y agoI’m less optimistic. Carbon rationing is the only solution. But what political power is there that would be able to simply declare and enforce a maximum amount of fossil fuels to extract per year in the entire world?
