as far as collective efforts like carbon caps/taxes, or subsidizing noneconomically viable technology, we should not do those things. they make business less efficient for nothing gained. we dont have the power to stop ourselves from warming the earth while the population continues to explode. even going to clean energy will not address other externalities created by too many people.
as far as smog limits & improving fuel efficiency, i do support those efforts primarily for quality of life (i want clean air/water) & resource conservation, a different topic than global warming.
whaever we are doing to warm the earth will not make it unsustainable to us, humans live in the tropics & in canada. more tropics is not a bad direction to go. we will kill ourselves at least 2 other ways before the earth gets too hot for us.
