Whatever one thinks of the climate change/global warming theory (and I don’t think much of it), the practical problem of converting developing countries to low-carbon (or net-zero) economies is far more daunting than eco-obsessed politicians such as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will admit, even to themselves.
For the most part, the technology doesn’t yet exist to keep the lights on, the heat heating, and goods and people moving using mostly “green” energy. It’s a matter of engineering, not of too few subsidies.
Perhaps no government in the world is better than the Trudeau Liberals at virtue-signalling environmental measures (like plastics bans, carbon taxes and stopping pipelines) that cause tens of billions of dollars in self-inflected economic damage, while achieving few environmental benefits.
