But while it will be “palatable, modest, and defensible,” Marcoplos says, “it will also generate “significant funds”—$469,272 a year.

What happens to the loot once climate change is conquered?

Lol, they are going to steal it anyways.

I love how lottery and Atlantic City casinos were suppose to pay for education, while I write out my yearly $16,000 property tax check to the blood suckers.

They always say abc or xyz will toward something, it never does

A nice little slush fund for the climate change hoaxers.

It will just go into someone’s pocket. Kind of like it does now.

Socialists want your money and power under the guide of saving the environment. They love to lie big.

This same organization couldn’t wait to shut down San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station just south of San Clemente, which was providing ~2500 megawatts of carbon free baseload power for many years.

Equipment issues at the plant helped them succeed, leading to a $5 billion dollar decommissioning and replacement power from fossil fuel sources.

A heat wave and rolling brownouts/blackouts is what they deserve when the power runs low.

My question is what happens to the money after they collect the revenue from these taxes?

Ever notice, nobody ever says what the money will be used for?

"We'll, we're going to use it to fight climate change." What does that mean exactly? What specifically are they going to do with the money that will have any impact on the climate, if any? Nobody ever explains that part.

$469,272 a year will not be enough to do anything significant so the money will be thrown down a rathole. Raise taxes and then throw it away.

How stupid can people be? democRAT stupid is REAL stupid.

If there were an actual effective way to stop using all fossil fuels and we did it they would still be pushing this #FakeScience and the need to tax us for it.

You know it, I know it and even most libtards know it.

Here’s my suggestion for the next Pet-Rock sensation:

A Bobble-Head doll statue of Ms. Cotex with a digital countdown clock built into her belly like we had for the Y2k ‘doomsday’ event.

The clock would have to be solar powered to prevent global warming from using all those AA Cells

It may be some small amount if/when enacted, but once it’s on the books, Katy bar the door. The insane will raise it beyond belief. They said the same thing about the federal income tax.
Don’t be STUPID twice.

So, my calculation (not using Common Core Math) is that the world will come to an end (by Occasional Kotex's reasoning) Thursday, January 2, 2040. (only 11.59 years left)

“The reason we need it is because we’re facing a planetary crisis and everyone—every individual, every community, every government—needs to step up at this time and make a real contribution to the situation,”

What is the money spent on?

Take out a 20 year loan. You’ll be dead before you have to pay it off so you come out ahead, shit for brains.

.. raises taxes to fund projects aimed at mitigating the effects of climate change.

And just what county projects will be countering 'climate change?' When will those projects be deemed successful or a failure?

In short, this money will go to pet projects that fill the coffers of big campaign donors. The actual projects will be hidden in budgetary spread sheets and will be subject to zero oversight, just another scam by the Democrat/Socialist Overlords. The working, property owning, serfs will be taking it in the shorts again.
