The solution is cap, auction and trade.This is moral since the auction charges CO2 emitters for the damage they cause. This is effective since it gives the government direct control over CO2 levels. This is efficient since it will reward groups that produce less CO2 and The investment in innovation will be focused on the biggest bang for the buck. This is politically possible since the left will get to 'stick it to the corporations' and the right will get a 'free market solution.'

Reduction of our impact on climate change is critical and CO2 reduction is probably the most easily addressed part. Investment to reduce the CO2 per kW Hr is needed. What policies are moral, efficient and politically practical?If government subsidizes something they have to tax or inflate and that is theft. Taxing CO2 emitters to fund the investment can't happen due to corporate influence. Neither of these give direct control over actual CO2.

How might history have turned out differently had we imagined the solution to global warming as unleashing rather than restricting human activity? What if we had conceptualized global warming not as the result of too much economic development but rather as the result of too little clean economic development? (N&S 127)
