The fool’s gold of carbon trading
1st December 2008
Jonathan Leake has a substantial article here on the future of carbon trading in Europe. I will be writing in more depth about carbon trading for the next edition of EconoMax ... but on a quick reading this article is deeply critical of some of the unintended consequences of the scheme and the flawed arrangements surrounding the inception of the 1st phase of EU-ETS. Worth a read if you are preparing for questions on government intervention in markets.
