Those aren't suggestions... they're examples.

Like I said it's composed of many many many different choices that have a cumulative effect. Carbon intensive products are going to become more expensive thereby providing an incentive to purchase (and by extension produce) less carbon intensive products. This applies to all people regardless of the level of economic comfort they have.

And really... the only examples I used that were perhaps beyond the means of the poor and most of the middle class was maybe buying the hybrid (which was really just a proxy way of saying if you buy a car chose the option with the better fuel efficiency) and the furnace (same except for home owners).
