Taxing fossil fuel production

I know nothing is straightforward or simple when it comes to agreement about money and giving it away...but really we don't have time! Can we just start taxing the elephants in the room???🤔🤔🤔 surely if we tax producers and use the funds to assist developing countries and the transition wouldn't that just make sense ? Am I missing something? https://www.ft.com/content/20356e04-4fcf-4034-9bcc-5b998e8caf15

    Unfortunately this might not work because of our greedy leaders who are after making profits and nothing else!!

      Carbon tax has always been a great idea and there should be no reason for parties to be at war over it

        I would think the same that we ought to tax the fuel companies heavily,and the funds be generated else where(clean energy projects)

            if consensus can be met between involved parties then that would serve right

              The dialogue around this issue should be devoid of any conflicts

                Inside conflict will not solve any climate issues

                  Taxing fossil fuel production is an important step towards addressing climate change. It not only provides an economic incentive for producers to shift towards cleaner alternatives, but also generates funds that can be used to support developing countries in their transition to a low-carbon economy. By taxing the elephants in the room, we can take a significant stride towards a sustainable future.

                    Fighting against each other is not the solution, there should be an understanding between the developed and the developing nations for a sustainable future.
