The cost of carbon cap and trade
Cap and trade is a market approach for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The government sets a mandatory cap for a particular pollutant and then allows companies to negotiate among themselves on how to meet the limit; those that are most efficient at reducing their emissions are rewarded for doing so.
