You have been told by your handlers to reject any information posted by Breitbart? How sad. If you refuse to believe facts posted by conservative news organizations, then ho about the same facts posted by other organizations, like this:

Global carbon-pricing revenues reach record high - plus other top stories about global energy

1. Rise in carbon-pricing revenues
As momentum grows for implementing energy transition measures like carbon taxes and Emissions Trading Systems (ETS), these 'polluter-pays' policy initiatives have produced record global revenues approaching the $100 billion milestone, the World Bank reports.
The 10th edition of the bank's annual State and Trends of Carbon Pricing report finds direct carbon-pricing instruments cover 23% of global greenhouse gas emissions, compared to just 7% a decade ago.
As the name suggests, a carbon tax adds a set fee that must be paid on each unit of carbon dioxide emissions.
ETS schemes are slightly different, as they limit the level of emissions a company can generate, enabling those with low emissions to sell their surplus allowance to heavy-emitting firms, in effect putting a tradable unit price on pollution.
Over the long term, the scheme should act as an incentive to reduce emissions and therefore costs, while generating funds which can help finance decarbonization efforts.
Carbon-pricing instruments have grown to cover almost a quarter of emissions.

“Carbon pricing can be an effective way to incorporate the costs of climate change into economic decision-making, thereby incentivizing climate action,” said Jennifer Sara, Global Director for Climate Change at the World Bank.
“The good news from this report is that even in difficult economic times, governments are prioritizing direct carbon-pricing policies to reduce emissions. But to really drive change at the scale needed, we will need to see big advances both in terms of coverage and price," she said. ...
These people running these one-world ideas are not friends of God-fearing American Christians but atheistic promoters of one world Marxist ideals, and many of our leftist leaders in America have been totally deluded into accepting and promoting their destructive plans.
One key point that should be gathered from this published plan is that these anti-American-independence planners believe gasoline prices need to be hiked through the roof in order to wean Americans off of gasoline for whatever stupid global warming nonsense the deluded planners have been deceived into believing and promoting.
