Yes, let's set up carbon (i.e., CO2) taxes, to meet our Paris agreement; and let's ratify these taxes. BUT: with the firm condition that we will NOT implement them until our competitors do the same, to avoid committing economic suicide.

BTW: why did the Paris agreement refuse to take account of the fact that Canada's forests already remove much more GHGs than we are producing? We have over 10 per cent of global forests, but less than 0. 5 per cent of the global population. Canada has 318 billion trees (8,953 per person). The U.S. had 319 million people in 2014, but 228 billion trees. That’s 716 trees per person. Brazil had 301 billion trees (1,494 per person), and China 139 billion (102 trees per person). Among highly populous countries, India (population, 1.267 billion) had a tree population of only 35 billion, leading to just 28 trees per person.
