Swiss Voters Reject Climate Tax

Good for the Swiss.

   To be clear, my lame-ass efforts to understand what's going on, climate-wise, lead me to guess that CO2 accumulation in the atmosphere deserves serious attention. But also that current progressive-left apocalypticism is probably worse than no reaction at all. The "Green New Deal" is laughably absurd as a climate bill--which isn't surprising since it wasn't written as a climate bill, but as a socialist-Democrat jobs bill. Which might be ok...though I doubt it...and we can't tell because there's been no effort to justify it on those grounds. And unless they took out that abject insanity about retrofitting all buildings in the USA, it's almost certainly worse than nothing, climate-wise. Also, of course, no climate bill that doesn't include more nuclear plants and natural gas can be taken seriously.
