Fee and dividend is definitely one way to do it. I'm a believer in building the coalition to win whatever we can but my preferred models of just transition go beyond emissions to address our whole economic model, like @cjaourpower.bsky.social's framework: climatejusticealliance.org/just-transit...
A strategy Framework for Just Transition that shows 6 meta-strategies for transition from our current Extractive Economy to a Living Economy. 
The meta-strategies are captured in the arrows:
- Stop the Bad
- Build the new
- Change the Rules
- Divest ("starve & stop") from their Power
- Invest ("feed & grow") in Our Power

The 6th meta-strategy is not listed but is "Change the Story" which the entire articulation and organizing around this model is doing.

The Trump Administration’s latest AI Executive Order is being framed around cybersecurity and national competitiveness. But for the communities living near AI data centers, gas plants, and transmission corridors, the real story is what the order leaves out.
