    Annoyingly cut/interviewed
    Annoying to listen to because of how/what kind of questions the interviewers ask
  • RobinP2K1
    Keep pressing!
    Thanks for pressing Richard Duke on Carbon Pricing. I am in the US and feel carbon pricing is the most important first step. And Canada please implement a border carbon adjustment. Maybe that will bring the US in line. I so admire Canada!
