A carbon tax is levied against the energy companies who pass the cost down to consumers where it impacts the low-income most of all. And the politicians who skim the tax for themselves get rich.
Not in his/her area. Bc has a pretty cool tax neutral system. Globally impractical but regional it is actually nice. You should read up on it. It balances carbon vs income tax, not to exceed earned tax rates.

But in the US, it will impact the poor most and politicians will get richer.
The major problem on that contention is the ice sheets named.. They are sea ice. Volume is static. It will require continental ice to 'slide off' for that to occur.
The Western Antarctic Ice Sheet. Its base is below sea level. All you have to do is brake it up into pieces and float it out to sea.
Melted sea ice does not result in a rise in the sea level.
Fact.
Ice above flotation does. That is ice sitting on bedrock that is above flotation not already displacing its own volume of sea water does contribute to sea level rise when broken up and floating.
