Misleading

[edit]

The description about the carbon tax having an effect on total emissions is a bad one to make. The only real question is what emissions would have been without the tax. So few people understand that carbon taxes don't reduce emissions in absolute terms, but in relative terms. Without stating this kind of information, in the 10 year review section, for example, it gives a false impression of the effect the tax is supposed to have. 66.23.35.54 (talk) 01:44, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
