Too bad it's not over the top.  The earth is projected to warm in the next 100 years as much as it did in the last 7,000.

A lot of it is. Even the IMF does it with their claim that our fossil fuel subsidies amount to 46 billion.

When you look into their report, only 3.5 billion were uncollected taxes and 1.4 billion was a direct subsidy.

The rest is 17.2 billion for climate change, 6 billion for air pollution, completely ignoring the cost to the economy if fossil fuels weren't readily available.

14.9 billion for traffic congestion, 2.1 billion for traffic accidents and 880 million for road damage. So, if BC went total EV tomorrow, would all those then be considered a Hydro subsidy?

You depend on organizations like the IMF for objective information but when they come out with stuff like this, they look like just another bunch of activists.
