    Sure it shifts the burden to the taxpayer and I would like my tax money to be spent on other things please.

    Companies aren’t going to change their policies voluntarily, it’s up to governments to make better decisions with my money and make other options more viable.

      It’s not just companies though. It’s states.

      Militaries, for example, would not be able to improve as quickly if we forewent the cheapest energy sources or made them artificially expensive.
