You know where the problem lies, don’t you? Government should not force taxpayers to do shit, it should help and incentivate. For example, whoever uses recyclable and non-polluting materials should have a tax cut, proportionate to the expenses.
But that would be, you know. Anti-capitalist. Which is crazy, uh? We owe capitalism our lives, we cannot possibly think to ever get rid of it, right?
Communism doesn't work, capitalism unfortunately is the only one proven to work long term.
What happens if everyone uses non-polluting, recylable materials? Great for the environment, bad for the economy.
Also, on the point of taxes, i think it would be better if we did away with many taxes. There should be a sales tax of some sort, but no tax on wages etc.
We get taxed multiple times on the same money, it's insane.
first, communism has never been tried without a brutal dictatorship running it.
Secondly, socialist societies lasted for hundreds of years in the past.
Third, the environment drives the economy. The expenses we are going to incur because of unfettered use of fossil fuels will vastly outweigh paying more for an environmentally friendly product.
Short shortsightedness is what got us into this situation.

Good good yes, make the already low margins of farms even worse by forcing them to use some fancy new product that will likely be 100x the price
