The most extensive financial incentives plan to reduce greenhouse gases was passed in California. 9-1 was the vote from the Air Resources Board on Thursday. Mary Nichols, chairwoman of California's air quality board, said, "We're inventing this, there is still going to be quite a bit of action needed before it becomes opperational."
I feel that the government should not tell us what we can and cannot do for the greenhouse emisions. I think that it is ok, however; to give incentives to people who want to make our planet safer to live on and make what little we have last a long time. The greenhouse gasses cannot be soley blamed on us though. That is like saying becasue of humans the "Great Ice Age," turned in to the "Melt Down." No, that is not what happened although we humans have helped pollute the earth with our cars and big factories, a lot of the stuff is naturally occuring and not everything is our fault. We can point fingers at who is to blame, but that wont get us anywhere. I feel that if we want to do something or feel compelled to do something than we should act, but we should not be forced to act on something we do not feel is important.
