I’m not sure what you mean by “not encouraging more federally” and the devil is very much in the details on that one.
Carbon Taxes with dividends would be far be the best means we have to switch away from fossil fuels, but the American people would never tolerate it. It’s a political non-starter.
Currently the best method federally is subsidies for green energy/tech adoption, because those things only make 40ish percent of people lose their shit instead of 80%.
But if we limit their output by not encouraging more federally, wouldn’t that increase prices and make renewable alternatives more favorable?
