I predict all the chuds who were upset about carbon prices because they meant that the work would just be shifted to unpriced countries will somehow not be happy with this either.
We need a viral tariff regime that penalizes countries with insufficient greenhouse gas restrictions. It might be the only way.
It's great !
Unfortunately it will probably means an increase of prices on good on the short term but a better situation for every Europeans on the long term.
