Na continuação de “Klaus: environmentalism is anti-freedom propaganda“, “Putting Global Warming Outrage on ice” por Rok Spruk no Capitalism & Freedom:
The implications of environmental intervention stretch beyond the edge of our imagination. If such measures were introduced, our living standards would probably fell dramatically and so would GDP growth decline as well. Assume that you’re an entrepreneur with a certain kind of technology. You know that this particular technology is the most efficient in the market giving you high yields of return. And then imagine that government said that “you must use another kind of technology” by which you cannot sufficiently generate the returns you get back from the technological combinations you carefully chose. Understanding consumer behavior is essential for the entreprise to boost the supply with the best quality and the lowest possible price yielding competitive margin. So in the long run, you’d forced to adapt a new kind of technology which completely distorts the stock of your products which consumer deny to buy. Your income, value added and profits would fall and how would then your enterprise be competitive and socially responsible if it didn’t generate profit?

Estado da “eficiência” da Energia Solar: General Electric recebe um subsídio do Estado para pagar a instalação de paíneis solares.
GE gets state grant for solar power

(Fairfield-AP) _ General Electric is getting a $722,000 grant from Connecticut’s Clean Energy Fund.
The money will be used to help cover the cost of installing solar electricity panels at GE’s Fairfield headquarters.
The fund is from money that electric utilities collect from customers through the “combined public benefits charge” line item on power bills.
GE, which makes the solar panels it’s installing, says it expects the installation to serve as a model for other GE buildings around the globe.
