We know climate change exists because of what JayR noted. You are correct, we tax things we don't want and we subsidize things we do want. How has that worked so far? Car dealerships have lots of EVs that nobody wants. The wind and solar industries are a scam, spending billions (maybe trillions) of dollars with no meaningful impact on our energy supply. But, we vote in politicians who supposedly represent the will of the people. I guess we want high energy costs.
That said, it seems that the winters are milder than when I was a kid.

They are milder Keith! I compare humans to incandescent light bulbs. When I was in grade school in the early 70s (i'm 59) the world population was approx 4B, it is now north of 8B. If I turn on 8 100W bulbs in a room, the temperature will rise more in that room than had I turned on 4. We have a population problem in our greenhouse.
