    Exactly. Fossil fuels should be 3 or 4 times more expensive. But try that and there’ll be riots in the streets.

      Riots in the streets now is preferable to the current path where our great grandchildren all die from heat stroke.

      But I agree with your point, the political calculus doesn’t make sense. If politicians are afraid of riots in the streets then we need to give them something worse to fear.

      Ecoterrorism or extinction seem to be the only options available.
