Better option number two would be to win the midterms by standing with the planet: impose a war tax on carbon profiteers and spend the proceeds on transitioning to renewables.The shift to clean energy doesn’t have to go slowly. Electric car sales rose 43% in 2020 over 2019, and 108% in 2021 over last year. Stocks in renewables are out performing oil and gas right now. Tipping points tip. If anything good could come of this grim, ghastly time, this could be it. We have certainly hit the bottom of the gas and oil barrel.
