Great discussion, Thom.
Exactly, the solution is a carbon tax, or better yet a carbon dividend where the money could reduce people's Federal taxes. This was supported even by the Libertarian Cato Institute, IMF, Yale Young Republicans. I am very disturbed a carbon dividend seems to have disappeared from discussion about climate change.

A carbon tax or carbon dividend is not an answer,it just creates another problem, as they are an NFT to be traded on the stock market, there is cheating of course, relies on self reporting (and you know how reliable that is).
Carbon tax, cyber currency.. brothers from the same mother.
