How greenhouse gas emitters are charged for pollution
Click HERE
I mentioned this briefly in some classes -- regarding our govt's recent announcement to impose the carbon tax from 2019 ($5 per tonne of greenhouse gas emissions)....
Saving the envmt sometimes need nudges and push from the govt to wean businesses and consumers off envmtally-harmful products and energy sources towards envmtally-friendly ones.....otherwise, even if envmtally friendly S&T is there, people may be reluctant to use them.....just think of the high cost and inconvenience of electric cars....
Qn: Can we rely on science and technology to solve our environmental problems?
