How Denmark plans to tax agriculture emissions to meet climate goals

1. Literally anything besides reducing consumption huh? That’s how governments are gonna play this?

2. > The effective cost of the tax paid by farmers will amount to 120 Danish kroner (£14/$18) per tonne of CO2-equivalent (CO2e) emitted when the tax is implemented in 2030. It will rise to 300 kroner (£34/$44) per tonne of CO2e from 2035 onwards.

   This is f all. Realistic social costs for carbon are $150-450 / TCO2e

   It’s less than the EU’s own toothless ETS price…

   Still, this will of course trigger all the usual suspects as some grotesque attack on their freedoms or whatever bs
