Two major problems that need to be considered with using localized pricing are sudden bidding wars and partitioning. Let's say locally you have a few factories when a sudden drop in supply occurs in the energy market. The biggest costs

They were offered government loans, but they did not accept it. The government has also said that direct subsidizes are not on the table since they already gotten enough. Applying more subsidizes will decrease trust people have in the ventu

Given the high amount of human trafficking that is involved in practically all construction of infrastructure, it is kind of strange how expensive it really is. It seems less and less of the budget is spent on actually construction.

Requiring companies to sequence the genome on every lumber that they buy would seem a bit expensive, especially if they are liable if they get sequencing the genome wrong and sells products produced with illegal wood. The Government could d

View the tariffs as carbon tax that represent the true cost of goods being produced in a coal heavy country and transported on boats that burn the most dirty kind of oil possible. It makes the whole thing look quite nicer and the economic c

The reason why Swedes allow it to continue is of similar reasons why people allow human trafficking in construction. It occurs in the background where it is not seen, it reduces costs, and makes people money. If human slavery was a net-loss

The solution there is to create tariffs based on emissions so that the costs of the emissions get accounted when people import goods.

If the issue is emissions per capita then the solution is simply to increase the population faster than the increase in emissions. Similar, countries with aging population will see an increase in emissions per capita regardless if they are

Yep, I got the year qualifier for that part wrong. To give some more context, Texas has already started to curtail around 10% of solar production because of overproduction. That brings an other aspects to the question if we are getting net

The goal of matching 45% of its purchased power with renewable electricity (in 2035) seems fairly average of what the typical grid user will likely get in 10 years. The word "matching" is what carries the implications. They could

Connecting the various electrical grids together makes each part dependent on the grid as a whole, which transfers the dependencies and risk to each nation. When supply in the grid is low, everyone rushes to bid on the limited resources and

This may be a bit late in the discussion, but one of the biggest deal with allowing DNA to be put into databases which the police can trawl is that the risk of false positives increases as the database size increases. DNA profiling is a pro

If your intention is to highlight the changes in the policy, I would remove the word "gpl" in that above quoted text, since the trademark is not under GPL. I would also enjoy reading a take on what the policy has changed, the impl
