Do you see the global GHG emissions going down? Actually down.
The successful implementation of cap-and-trade was on Sulfur Dioxide emissions, and YES EMISSIONS WENT DOWN MEETING TARGETS.
The proposal to use cap-and-trade for GHG was shot down by people like you in 2010 that said it wouldn’t work, so it was never implemented like it was for Sulfur Dioxide. So GHG continued to rise without the cap-and-trade mechanism to reduce them.
Good luck with your optimism.
Oh, I’m not optimistic. We had something that worked, and it wasn’t implemented for GHG because of pessimism like yours.
[X] is not the same functionally in the economies as [Y]

SO₂ is not the same functionally in the economies as CO₂, just like the ozone destroying gases aren’t teh same functionally in the economies as CO₂.
You are breathing optimism like oxygen in an oxygen poor environment.

It means that you are comparing apples to orange trees. You do not understand what the challenges are and what the require effort is.
