The Republicans have their echo chamber which allows them to influence the media, so it is my turn to help the other side.

Richard Branson Offers Climate Prize

Well, that was fast. Three days ago I wrote about the market based incentives to solve climate change, but that was dependent on implementing a cap-and-trade system. Now Richard Branson is offering a 25 million dollar prize for carbon dioxide scrubbing technology. It isn't as large as the prize the free market offers, but it creates some incentive in the short term while the government gets its act together. Thanks Richard.

Hi -- a few of us (liberaltarians) are trying to get an open, group blog going over at www.liberaltarian.net -- we'd love to have you contribute either through comments, posting, or even reposting/linking to some things you've already written here. Thanks!
