catchy name for something that would be fine if it worked... - shikantaza 2012-05-01 20:39:25 (51 views)

the cap is the point. All the trading does is decide who reduces to make the cap - DC Warrior 2012-05-02 05:42:55 (50 views)

Bad scheme, ripe for corruption. Another rotten idea by free market zealots. - nomad 2012-05-02 10:25:00 (40 views)

as opposed to what? Making every factory cut its emissions by 50%? - DC Warrior 2012-05-02 10:27:30 (46 views)

Something along those lines. Why would regulating emissions be prohibitively complicated? - nomad 2012-05-02 10:32:43 (43 views)

Totally unconvincing. - nomad 2012-05-02 11:00:18 (36 views)

Indulgences = market-based reform based on incentives, not punitive regulation. - altamont 2012-05-01 20:17:37 (62 views)
