Climate change is becoming a nightmare for many traditional industries: logging, winter recreation, shrimp gone, lobsters next?

The World Economic Forum says such carbon pricing can pay for itself by returning those revenues to individuals to fund individual adaptations. Please, BDN, cover more on climate change: like regenerative agriculture, energy storage, increasing electrification, refrigerant chemistry, methane bubbling from melting permafrost, rising sea levels, dietary choices, new nuclear, and climate restoration. ~ Peter Garrett, Citizens Climate Lobby, Winslow
