The economic and personal sacrifice that the average American would have to make in order to ban all fossil fuels within 10 years is orders of magnitude larger than a 25 cent gas tax increase. It's the right thing to do, but it WILL involve sacrifice.

So now we know the result of the incessant scare campaign on climate for the last 30 years

About half of all people across the world believe humanity will go extinct because of climate!

This is totally against what the UN Climate Panel tells ushttps://t.co/Z2SiPdDnaF pic.twitter.com/ro6cz5gvKL

Most Americans think climate is a "crisis" or a "major problem" requiring "sacrifices"

But majority unwilling to pay even $24 a year to fix it

(really only willing to have *others* fix it, like the rich or the fossil fuel companies)https://t.co/mY0jZOiL3z pic.twitter.com/QBDpslLRce
