And that's what is being attempted with this approach - a price on carbon to be followed by a trading (market) based system

Whilst i believe humans are a big part of the overall problem,
i really fear a "trading" system as the means of recovery.
Traders effectively brought down Barings and Lehmans and other banks,
and traders are "probably" behind the current collapse of sovereign countries.
They basically do nothing constructive other than gamble other peoples money and trim fees off as part of the process.
I see a carbon based trading scheme as the next "no docs" loans
system, generated to ensure that when the dust settles
only the traders will be able to afford petrol for their porsches.
Unless population control is brought into the mix
( wonder which party has the guts to do that )
its all irrelevant.
