Will I see you there? BTW - did you watch the video? Is the opinion you object to mine or that of the video? The point is that it is a subject to be discussed (hopefully) without polarizing barbs going back and forth - though that may be too much to ask. If you are suggesting this post was intended on outlining a full alternative to cap and trade, then you are a bit mistaken. Though a shift of tax burden and fossil fuel subsidies seems like a pretty good start. This is a review of a video and a recap of interviews with principals involved in the video. I'm not sure who needs to simmer down. Feel free to add your own ideas for solutions. Bring on Copenhagen indeed. Will I see you there?
