Climate Change-Solutions

The pages Climate Change-Foundational and Climate Change-Effects clearly establish; the human cause of Climate Change, some of it's current effects, and future effects which will be devastating for all life on Earth. It is not a given that the best choice for humanity is to attempt to reduce Climate Change's impact or adapt to our changing climate. However we are solution oriented creatures and as such here are some possible approaches we could take, including the laissez-faire (Doing Nothing) approach.

What Is Carbon Pricing?

The World Bank 5/27/2019

There are several paths governments can take to price carbon, all leading to the same result. They begin to capture what are known as the external costs of carbon emissions – costs that the public pays for in other ways, such as damage to crops and health care costs from heat waves and droughts or to property from flooding and sea level rise – and tie them to their sources through a price on carbon.
