I gotta say, the implication here that Cap and Trade worked for Acid Rain so it will work to completely transform our global energy supply and stop climate change is pretty much B.S. See this post for a quick explanation of why: “Cap and Trade Worked for Acid Rain, Why Not for Climate Change?”

I want to like this website, but I find it hard to trust a site that says nothing about the writer/owner and spells the name of the Waxman-Markley bill wrong… even though that is the whole focus of the website… Who are you?

I’ll add a section to this page about me now. Thanks for bringing up this oversight. My apologies.
