Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt wants Eurozone carbon taxes. And, with Sweden taking the European Union’s rotating presidency for six months, starting in July, Reinfeldt may be in a position to push that. (Sweden started carbon taxes way back in 1991. And, with Saab, Volvo and steel-making, it had heavy industry to deal with.)
So, in the ramp-up to the Copenhagen round of climate-change negotiations, we have something new in the mix.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
