Yes, CO2 will fall to market pressures.

Oil will eventually run out, same with gas - a replacement is needed and by the looks of things, hydrogen cars and nuclear power plants (maybe eventually fusion) are the way to go. People who don't believe in MMGW and those who do will also buy more efficient energy consuming items for their homes (such as long life lightbulbs) because they save money by doing so. The same is true of insulating ones home and so forth.

The benefits of doing these things in a free market are much better than having the government do them and whether you believe in MMGW or not is not important, technology has always improved our environment. Could you imagine the London congestion if we all still rode horses? The streets would be full of ****.
