The Story of Cap and Trade

Follow the link to find out the truth about cap and trade and the unintended consequences inherent in this type of "solution" to the CO2 rise. Annie Leonard's informing and engaging animated explanation is a great way to start understanding the issue for any age. Many links provided for further study and action.

In particular, I recommend The New York Times article Cap and Fade by James Hanson which proposes a more sensible plan called Fee and Dividend which actually rewards people for going greener.
