That's not to say that these costs aren't worth paying (the scientific and economic consensus is that they are worth paying) but they are costs nonetheless. Kidding ourselves otherwise will just undermine trust & result in inefficient ways of reducing carbon emissions. — PolitiTweet.org

Reducing carbon emissions will be good news for some businesses and for some people but, in terms of the wider economy, the new jobs created are a cost, not a benefit, and will have to be paid for by taxpayers or consumers. — PolitiTweet.org

If we're really serious about controlling climate change, we should focus on carbon consumption not carbon production (as @Dieter_Helm argues in his book 'Net Zero') which requires a carbon tax + a carbon border adjustment mechanism. — PolitiTweet.org
