KEY TAKEAWAYS
>Subsidies are payments, tax breaks, or other forms of economic support given by governments to certain industries or economic sectors.
>The goal of subsidies is to aid or support what are deemed to be key parts of the economy or national infrastructure.
>While subsidies may have a direct positive impact on the particular industry or companies involved, economists argue that subsidies work against free trade and create market inefficiencies.

Given the global acceptance of Climate Change as a threat to all nations, it is deemed essential that we shift our energy strategy...and attendant infrastructure away from fossil fuels...and waiting for a widely disparate market to coalesce around a common solution is IMO foolhardy...therefore, if falls upon government to provide the necessary 'incentives' that will more quickly effect those changes...simple as that...it's URGENT...whether you like it or not, 193+ nations agree.
