How about a revenue-neutral carbon fee and dividend in which households receive the fees that are levied on polluters? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fee_and_dividend
I didn't expect to find a climate change denier in HN comments.
This is such good news. Can't wait until we abandon fossil fuels altogether.

I chose Apple Music for a couple reasons:

1. I can add music to my streaming library that is not on their service and that music isn't treated any differently than the stuff in their catalog from a UI standpoint.

2. It integrates better into the Apple ecosystem, which I've already tied myself too. For example, play music using Siri and Apple TV support.

Also, I'm not a fan of Spotify's UI.
