"Fighting climate change is going to cost all of us money. That's because the price of dumping carbon into the atmosphere must necessarily rise" Is billing those who contribute the least the answer? Those with less money contribute less CO2 than anyone else because they can't afford to turn up the heat, or crank up the A/C, or drive too much. Nevermind that thinking that cutting our measly 3-4% contribution to the total amount of CO2 is going to change the climate is patently ridiculous. Like Michael Shermer says: "Association is not necessarily causation." (Especially when you consider the temps are going down and CO2 is going up - in spite of everything that's been instituted - hybrid cars, solar panels, wind turbines.
