"Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools" - Romans 1:22

I have no idea if any of this is relevant, I've barely skimmed the thread, but here is my opinion.

A carbon tax is designed to tax big polluters with the idea that they will want to lessen emissions by finding better, more sustainable ways of fueling their work, and that the money from the tax will be put into environmental research and aid to help ensure that that the system is cycle of benefit.

The end goal of a carbon tax is to reduce emissions, and I believe if enforced it should have the effect it wants. More reward for sustainable design should be introduced as incentive possibly. Maybe limits as well, where if they pass a certain threshold for a set amount of time, they pay less for the next year or so. I don't know how exactly to solve the issue, but it is a right step towards getting funding and also reducing the harm we do.
