I am not a global warming alarmist, but given the existing legislation, this appears to be a sensible concomitant. My only concern that comes to mind at the moment, is that it might lead to trade wars, as well as violate existing trade agreements, which well, maybe don't exist in "our world." But that gets back to the matter as to which side of the looking glass reality is, or whether it is a combination of both sides. One of the joys of serving in a responsible position in Atlasia, is one needs to parse the nooks and crannies of existentialism.
The simple fact is that, as far as this administration is concerned, that the current Atlasian Carbon Tax makes our products so noncompetitive on a global level that this act is needed to level the playing field.
I would hope that international opposition to this would be minimal, since this merely returns the playing field to exactly where it was at before we passed the Carbon Tax last year.
