This year, in conjunction with talk about climate change, you'll probably hear the words "cap and trade" being tossed around, and President Elect Obama is expected to sign climate-change legislation that includes a cap-and trade bill...A cap-and-trade system will institute a nationwide limit on greenhouse-gas emissions and fine those companies that produce more than their share. In the first and most controversial stage of setting up a cap-and-trade system, the government selects the organizations to monitor emissions and sets a maximum amount of heat-trapping gases that any company can produce during a given time.
