This is exactly right.
Let's engineer solutions that are technologically based and better than what we currently have, not increase government control over people. Freedom is at least as important as the climate.
A solution that is mandated is not the same as a solution that emerges organically as better both for the user AND the environment.

This is a value judgment, not an absolute statement, and should be addressed as such.
Should you have the absolute freedom to pollute as much as you want if it harms your neighbors? What if a solution exists that is better for you and the environment, should you have the freedom to not take it if you don't care about the harms to those around you? Do you view having to have emissions controls installed on your car as an unjustifiable infringement on your freedom?
