In principle I'm in agreement with a carbon tax. But it doesn't mean the one we had was a good one or well thought out.
I'm even more suspicious of the international carbon ETS, which to me seems to be an international money grab by investment banks. An ETS was virtually selling permission to pollute, with the twist that those who don't pollute end up paying for polluters.
