Concrete accounts for something like 5% of CO2 emissions. So They want to use green energy reduce CO2 produced elsewhere in the system as an offset.

- gruez 4y agoIf you think the problem is carbon emissions, you should tax carbon emissions (ie. carbon tax). That way it covers everything, not just the ones that receive enough public attention, and there's an incentive to come up with greener paving materials. Right now you're forced to pay the same costs (ie. solar panel coverings) regardless if you're using concrete (max co2) or bricks (minimum co2?)
- stonemetal12 4y agoI agree, law should be direct in what it is trying to do.
- Tiktaalik 4y agoreminder this is a country where there were weekly riots in the streets when gas prices went up. (yellow vest movement) A carbon tax would make sense. Let's not pretend this is easy and viable to implement.
