Volcker Should Advocate VAT and Drop the Carbon Tax Recommendation

"there are plenty of scientists who don't believe carbon is the cause..."

Really? My obversation is the opposite of what you say. Most believe in the link between carbon and temperature. What do you define as "plenty". There are always contrary opinions. That is the way science works, there is a constant examination and reexamination of an issue. We understand that. The point is that the consensus is that there is a link. Do you take medicines, or know anyone who takes them? Do you doubt the science behind the use of medicines? Read some books.
