The Threat to the Planet: Energy Policy

2008 was among the ten warmest years since reliable record keeping began.

I think if a carbon tax is imposed to save the Earth we must change the whole money system because otherwise private money-creating elites would profit primarily from the tax. The money must belong again to the states, the nations, in other words, the peoples. Today's money-feudalism must be brought to an end just as over-consumerism of natural resources must end.
