- adrianN 5y agoWe should just put a price on carbon directly instead of optimizing lots of other rules to also take emissions into account. Fuel is just too cheap.
- peregren 5y agoToo cheap for who? There are carbon taxes being implemented and on the whole i think they are good. But combined with the current spike in energy prices, they are hammering some people.
- robertlagrant 5y agoOr just get rid of silly nonsense like this rule so people are not incentivised to drive 6000km by the government.
- adrianN 5y agoThere are about a billion rules. Do you volunteer to assess each one's impact on the climate and balance it against other economic effects of the rule, or do you simply attach the proper price to carbon and let the market figure it out?
- robertlagrant 5y agoI would remove the rules that aren't related to quality and safety and let the market figure it out first. Making things better for people to effect change is a better starting point than making things worse.
