It is devious and deceptive to call the new fuel tax a “Carbon” tax, implying there is dirty free carbon associated with CO2.
CO2 is a colorless, tasteless, odorless gas with no free carbon. CO2 is to plants as oxygen is to people. With minimal CO2 in the atmosphere all plants and therefore, all living creatures would die. CO2 is not a “pollutant”, it is necessary for all life.
Demonizing CO2 is as ridiculous as it would be to demonize water (H2O) because water has two dangerous hydrogen atoms.
All of the several dozens of temperature prediction computer models, all of which use CO2 levels as a driver, when run with real data starting in 1980, grossly exaggerate global temperatures relative to those actually measured today.
Statement to US SENATE ENVIRONMENT AND PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE by Roy Spencer, PhD
Since these temperature models are wrong, all the sea level rise predictions, which are based on these models, also grossly exaggerate sea level rise.
Balloon and satellite temperature measurements in the upper troposphere “greenhouse layer”, where temperature is supposed to be rising, show no recent increase in temperature. In other words, growth in the greenhouse effect has not happened.

Scientists estimate that around 500 million years ago the CO2 levels were most likely 20 (twenty) times higher than they are today, and nothing catastrophic happened.
A joint NASA MIT study has identified a natural tropical cloud climate thermostat, with very high effectiveness, that channels excess heat into space.

No “Carbon” tax. It’s based on disinformation.
