Climate policies 101: stalling
Year 'x':
Politicians: we need to lower emissions, let's tax product 'y', which causes emissions, to discourage usage.
Industry: that costs us money!
Politicians: ok, then we'll postpone in to year 'x+5' so you can adapt.
Industry: great!
Year 'x+4':
Consumers: next year we can't afford product 'y' anymore!
Industry: then we will lose money!
Politicians: for real!? That shouldn't happen. Let's rethink this... (start from the top).
