Can’t figure out carbon taxes today but thankfully we’ll have a knife’s edge to walk on total catastrophe until we figure out sequestration.

  i think we should be exploring all. carbon tax would be great, but currently seems politically impossible outside of Europe (and even challenging within)

    You’re missing the point: if we can’t find the political will to implement solutions today, why would we find the political will to implement solutions tomorrow?

      because technological progress means things that were costly and expensive are easier in the future. imagine telling people to stop using gas in 1950. it would have been fully impossible, now avenues are opening up.
