The Billionaire Inspired “Climate Karma Tax”: Part II
Has the carbon tax been effective at lowering global GHG emissions? In a word no, but maybe it’s not the tax itself that’s flawed but rather that it’s never been properly targeted at the people who are holding back progress.

2229 Billionaires have amassed approximately 9 Trillion dollars by creating a rigged system that enriches themselves while plundering the planet. How can we incentivize those self proclaimed, “big-brained problem solvers” to aggressively address climate change?

HOW DO WE MEASURE SUCCESS? Thoughts on Soccer Goals, Social Impact, and Surgical Errors
