Yes, I do believe that’s the 3rd grade reading level and understanding conservatives have about this issue.

As economists from across Canada, we are concerned about the significant threats from climate change. We encourage governments to use economically sensible policies to reduce emissions at a low cost, address Canadians’ affordability concerns, maintain business competitiveness, and support Canada’s transition to a low-carbon economy. Canada’s carbon-pricing policies do all those things.

Taxing carbon emmisions would incentivize businesses to reduce them. Less carbon emissions will slow down climate change. Weather and climate are not the same, but they are related.

Holy fuck this is lame. The right truly can’t meme lol
