Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
This is true, but it would help incentivise the country to move away from fossil fuels.
Also worth noting this would drive up the prices of nearly all goods as well since shipping costs would rise.
There are good incentives for fuel subsidizes, but the goverment has failed at having stipulations to gonwith the subsidizes.
Personally, i think they should nationalize the fuel production industry. No one should get rich from a natural resource, especially one that is destorying the planet. Even more so since they have known about it for 70+ years and have been trying to cover it up.
Absolutely! Every industry related to fossil fuels, be it fuel for vehicles, power production or even plastic manufacture and steel smelting, should be nationalized and then phased out as quickly as possible in favor of cleaner and otherwise less hazardous alternatives.
Natural resources, infrastructure and vital base components used in roughly everything should not be owned and controlled by under-regulated for profit entities who will never value long-term or even short term human survival higher than short term profits.
